Thanks for posting it ! It's a great thing to see, and after that, all I want to do is pay new zealand, and its people, respect. So respect from france.

And I won't say "go all blacks", I'll support my team, I'll just say, may the best team win.

@alecto8891 Thanks for your comment. Absolutely agree with you - may the best team win. Looking forward to the NZ vs. France game this weekend.

@LeagueUnionSevens Cameraman must've gotten lost somewhere in his "intense training" lol

i think i speak for everyone when i say that this was an amazing opening ceremony! SOOOO PROUD TO BE KIWI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CJColemanNZ]

@LeagueUnionSevens .. they were supposed to be dancing - they are quite a key part of the viaduct/harbour so i guess they were trying to incorporate every aspect of it.

This is by far the best display of the opening ceremony fireworks that I have seen. It was not carried on tele up here in the USA. The opening ceremony is even better than the olympics ceremonies over the year, They could take a good lesson from you. It's simply beautiful. I can not wait to come to New Zealand at the end of the year and see all the beauty in person.

Cheers from Milwaukee,Wisconsin, USA. :D

[LivvyPritchard]

re the crates. Signify harbor welcome as do the waka canoes - of many nations settled in NZ. eg. European Kiwis, Samoan, Tongan etc Pacific Island and Asian communities. Hey, everyone counts : )

Crate trucks, a drummer placed randomly on a building, a choir placed randomly on a building, cook islanders drumming on a random building, 2 men giving all they got drumming on random things, 2 other guys casually walking down a building and an orchestra. This is Auckland being creative.
