At precisely 8:12 a.m., 12 hours before what is expected to be a spectacular Olympic opening ceremony, the bells heralded a day of celebration that has been years in the making. Big Ben — the famous bell inside Parliament’s clock tower — bonged 40 times over three minutes to ring in the games. Last Edited by Blue Beamed on 07/28/2012 12:34 AM Blue Beamed |
