Olympic Torch Relay - Day 46

Olympic Torch Relay Day 46, Loughborough
3rd July 2012

It didn't hit me until last week ..
.. that seeing an Olympic Torch live is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
And so, i marked it on my calendar
But I almost missed it this morning because I didn't know what time it was passing through

look at all these people waiting on Epinal Way ..





Here it comes..







the proud torchbearer..



entering the University's East Entrance



By the sports fields



By Pilkington Library and the make-shift grandstands made of hay!



Torches kiss here! (but i missed that)



over the hill to Hollywell Park



More spectators .. this time from Shepshed High



The procession begins again from Hollywell Park.. this time to town centre



The torches have kissed!
(I missed it again because i was too short!!)



The youngest torchbearer today, James
