I'm not sure what negative British reporting you're referring to but it wouldn't surprise me.

Heck, the Guardian even had whinging articles about being criticized for for criticizing. The BBC at least had the balls to say that the they and the UK press got it wrong (and then promptly blamed it on journalist based in London writing the articles).

I was amazed by the atmosphere here in Vancouver. Downtown was packed every day with happy people.Can you imagine that in the UK?. People in mid-winter actually being happy?.

Yeah, some of the organization could have been better, but overall, I think judging from how much people enjoyed being here, it was a highly successful Olympic Games.

(And I really look forward to seeing London dealing with an extra 1 million+ visitors, all with a happy smile on their faces)
