The young man passed by the tomb where Pierre de Coubertin's heart is buried, to launch the long journey of harmony of this Relay. The torch will be crossing five continents and stopping in 21 cities around the world before reaching China, where it will stop in over 100 places. On 8 August, it will enter the Olympic Stadium in Beijing during the Opening Ceremony to light the Olympic cauldron.</P></div></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><div style="text-align:left;"><P><STRONG>Harmony and peace</STRONG></P></div></div></div></div><br><div style="margin-bottom: 40px;">Tags: <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/greeks/" rel="tag">greeks</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/know/" rel="tag">know</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/how/" rel="tag">how</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/to/" rel="tag">to</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/do/" rel="tag">do</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/it/" rel="tag">it</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/olympic/" rel="tag">olympic</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/torch/" rel="tag">torch</a></div>http://torchrelay.beijing2008.cn/en/ceremonies/greece/news/n214279453.shtmlMon, 24 Mar 2008 16:38:05 GMT
