Default Olympic torch

So I've got a nice birds eye view of Justin Herman Plaza. There are tons of people down there. They have a couple hundred yards of The Embarcado closed down.

Too bad for the protestors and supporters that they took a detour around the Plaza.

Im watchin it on KTVU. It seem like a sloppy and not well executed event. Stop and go for the torch every half min or so...

They do have to stop and light each torch.

I meant they are stopping or moving very slow at a constant pace in between the handoffs. Alot of people are probably pissed they moved the route.

Yeah. Looks like things are flowing a little better now.

With all that's going on right now it's not going to be a smooth event.

It's funny because they are doing the route they said they weren't going to do.
