Olympic Games are always long-awaited, gather a lot of people, bring new investments to the country and just present the atmosphere of fun and happiness! Olympic Games are hold every 4 years and there are 2 types of them: Summer Olympic games and Winter Olympic Games. Originally, this kind of sport competitions came from Ancient Greece. Unfortunately, very often there are some problems, which have no relation to sport: politics, violence, intergovernmental relations. There were even several boycotts of the Olympic Games. And, of course, nowadays, great attention is paid to doping control – any sportsmen at any day (without previous warning) can be asked to make a doping control test. In 2014 the Russian Republic will be a host-country for holding the Olympic Games. The tried their best to won and they did it. World-famous resort Krasnaja Poljana will be even more popular since then. As we know from the Russian motto, the Russian Republic is not all about bears, Siberia and vodka, it is the country where the Black Sea meets white snow! It is full of sometimes unexpected events and people, which will share their hospitality with any visitor, wills how you Khohloma, Cheburashka and, of course, Olympic Misha and Sochi.

Cheburashka toy!

It is widely known, that Olympic Bear, but now in the Russian Federation he is called only – Misha was a symbol of the Olympic Games 1980. He was born exactly to represent those games and after their ending decided, that fame and image is nothing. So, nowadays, he is avoiding annoying journalists, constantly changes his location and leads a healthy lifestyle.

Misha was chosen due to the general election of the Russian nation, Misha was an undisputable leader. His father is V. Chizhikov, Misha was made from his picture. At the end of the Summer Olympic Games, Misha touches hearts of audience, people and guests. He was more than cute, he was so affecting and provoking tender emotions. He flew into the blue sky together with a song “Good Bye, Russia, Good Bye!” Of course, Russians are rather extraordinary people, so, first of all, they wanted to send an alive, real bear into the sky, but then realized – it is too dangerous! Its behavior is unpredictable. Misha was OK! But he reigned in summer, and now there is Winter Olympic Games! And in a couple of days, we will hear the news.

Misha -- Mascot of the 1980 Olympic Summer Games in Moscow.There are some suggestions, that Cheburashka can be a new symbol of the Olympic Games. Whether it is true or not, we don’t know, but this creature deserves some attention. Cheburashka is a rather old boy or girl, actually, it is still unknown! So, you can make your wn suggestions, I think it won’t humiliate his or her dignity! Cheburashka is 41 year old and he or she out of a sudden appeared from the box of oranges, here we can make traces to Aphrodite, the ancient Goddess. So, to tell the truth, its origin is still unfamiliar to us, that is why there are so many mysteries around it.

Most of all I like her or his appearance – big, bright, round eyes. Strange, noticeable and even huge ears. Cheburashka is a very kind creature, he or she has a friend Gena. Gena is a big green crocodile; he reads press, smokes a pipe and works in a Zoo. Russian’s President Vladimir Putin is famous throughout the world, but Cheburashka is as famous as he is. So, there will be a free voting and, who knows, may be Cheburashka will have an opportunity to represent the Russian Federation.

And what about Olympic Misha? He is lovely. Will it offend him? Oh, no. First of all, he is not mean and greedy, Cheburashka is a friend of him. The second point, he is a summer symbol, so he decided to wait till the next summer Olympic Games! Misha, we are waiting for you!

Sochi 2014

Misha_olympicThe 22nd Olympic Games will take place in the Russian Black Sea Resort, named Sochi. Sochi has been striving for this honourable event for long 27years, after the Olympic Games 1980. I was in Russia 2 years ago, I really liked this country, especially Cheburashks, Krorkodil Gena, samovar with hot and strong black Russian tea, matrioshkas, lapti – these things are so cute! Their people are so friendly and their hospitality is undisputable! Russia, the official name The Russian Federation is the biggest country in the world, and don’t believe that there are only 3 location there; I mean Moscow, St. Petersburg and Siberia! Now you already know Sochi.

Sochi - candidate city 2014Sochi is famous for its fashionable and expensive Black Sea resorts. And, of course, it is not all about vodka and ushankas (hats), its traditions is much older and interesting. Also, it is one of the most powerful countries, it has nuclear weapon, oil, gas and it is a member of the Great 8. But, it is another story to tell. So, at the 4th of July Russian city Sochi was announced a host of the Winter Olympic Games. As for the Russians, they deserved this nomination, and they won it and leave PyeongChang behind. They got 51 votes and its main rival only 47. Russia won only in the second circle of elections in Guatemala city. Olympic Games can be viewed as a new milestone for the Russian Federation; it will help to develop a new system of sport games, to develop the infrastructure of sport and to outline new perspectives! It is planned to build the following objects: skating rinks, new Olympic Stadium, the Main Media Center, and, it goes without saying, the main Olympic Village. A lot of Commissions, from different countries (MOC representatives), visited Sochi and made an objective decision. President Vladimit Poutin mentioned that 12 billion dollars are already allocated for Olympic Games Development. It is amazing, in 7 years, Russia can have the most developed and sophisticated sport complex throughout the world. It opens completely another opportunities for Russian winter sports, it will make this country even more popular and more powerful!
