    Opening Ceremony Viewing Party - San Diego

    By ChrisMorrow  |  Posted July 28, 2012  |  San Diego, California
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     ChrisMorrow attended a free Olympic Opening Ceremony viewing party in San Diego, California. It was hosted by the Olympic Training Center. The event was so popular and packed that they had to turn people away. The event was held on the USS Midway, which now functions as a floating museum on the bay of San Diego. 'It was an amazing experience with thousands, I felt like I was in London,' she says.
    - Jareen, CNN iReport producer

    I watched the London 2012 Olympic opening ceremony onboard the USS Midway during a free event in San Diego. This was an opportunity to meet the 2012 BMX Olympic Team before they leave for London, celebrate with San Diego, as well as meet other Olympians and Paralympians.
