If you can't get there, you might be able to catch some of it on the television, good luck with that.
I'm watching the start of the opening ceremony, there appear to be thousands of men in silver dresses doing interpretative dance and banging drums, quite good so far then.
Oh there are now dancers writing as they dance across a giant scroll of paper - shame about the shithead Australian commentary I have - this opening ceremony is stunning.
Once it begins I am interested in only the men's gymnastics, and the women's synchronised swimming and diving to me they are the most visually interesting sporting activities. Running and throwing things and team sports are so pointless as to be beyond understanding.
