      Today, the sacred flame will be lit in Olympia Greece. From then on till May 3rd, the torch will finish its passing through 19 cities in 19 countries respectively,  scattering  in 5 continents. After the long journey around the world, it will arrive at Hongkong and Macao.

      One May 5th, it will reach Hainan province, waiting to be transmitted through 31 provinces, municipals and antonomous regions by train, airplan and buses. The cities it will go can be added up to 113.

      According to the schedual, the torch is going to stay 3 days in each city. Populous cities such as Sichuan, Henan, Shandong and Guangdong can have 4 days with the torch in. August 6th is the day for the torch’s arrival at Beijing. And it is going to finish its task in the nest on August 8th, lighting the giant torch tower.

      I think the whole journey is extremely exciting for Chinese people. We are all lucky enough to witness the great procedure.
