Das letzte alpine Ski-Rennen ist Geschichte und damit sind die Winterspiele für mich beendet. Morgen geht's schon vor der Schlussfeier zurück nach Berlin und damit dürfte ich glücklicherweise dem üblichen Abreise-Chaos am Montag nach einer solchen Massenveranstaltung entgehen. In Erinnerung bleiben für mich Olympische Winterspiele in einem tollen AP-Team mit perfekter Technik, mäßigem Wetter und guter Stimmung. Einziger Wehrmutstropfen die wenigen Chancen mal kreative Bilder zu machen und nur bei einer Sportart gebunden zu sein. Dafür war es deutlich weniger anstrengend als meine bisherigen Olympischen Spiele. Hier zum Abschluss nochmal eine Auswahl einiger Bilder:
