It's the start of the Winter Olympics for the Playmobil people in our house...

... and so I'll be bringing you a few scenes every day.

Today is the opening ceremony. Skater Andrei arrives in the stadium with the Olympic torch.

This has cheered me up this morning. Thank you @SoMuchToBits

Oh this is exactly what I needed today. Thank you

Thank you all!

Catching up last couple of action packed days. Love the luge!

Thank you! Tomorrow's photos will be posted at a sensible time as I don't have to get up early for work!

Today is the biathlon. Greta sets off on her skis.

Now it's time for some target shooting.

Rooting for Greta

Greta takes aim in the prone position.

Reinhardt is taking part in the men's event too.

A strong start from Greta.

This is more interesting than the Olympics themselves.

Thank you! I haven't had much of a chance to watch any of the real winter Olympics yet...

I have no interest at all in the real Winter Olympics (except the figure skating) but am loving this!

Thanks @ChessieFL !

Anyone else for some biathlon activity? Tomorrow there will be something else...

Today is the snowboard cross event. Niklaus, Henri, Kazuo and Chandler are competing.

Here they are coming over one of the jumps.

Here are Karin, Geethika and Ingrid in the women's event.

Geethika is in the lead as they come over one of the jumps.

Go Geethika!

Wow those rails were siiiiick!

I think the snowboarders look awesome.

Great work @SoMuchToBits

Did Geethika win?

Love snowboard x, any wipe outs or are they very polite and give each other space?

Thank you! Yes Geethika did win. No they are all considerate and give each other space! might be different if the puddingheads were competing
