2014.2.21

It was fine but cold.

Early in the morning there was Women's Figure Skating Free Program.  Japanese skater Ms. Mao Asada (浅田真央) was expected to get the gold medal before Olympic, but she fell and got a bad mark at the Short Program, and it was impossible for her to get medals.  However her performance was really nice. 
At Vancouver Olympic she was the silver medalist and cried for regret.  She has made great efforts for the past 4 years to get the gold medal, and most of Japanese people wished for her dreams to come true.  Unfortunately it did not happen.  But I believe everyone who watched the performance was moved.  Thank you very much.  Two other skaters, Ms. Akiko Suzuki (鈴木明子) and Ms. Kanako Murakami (村上佳菜子) also missed the medals but their performances were beautiful too.
 Ms. Ayana Onozuka (小野塚彩那) got a bronze medal for Women's Half Pipe Free Style Skiing.  Congratulations!
