Scene of closing ceremony
(BEIJING, August 14) -- More than 300 students from around the world said good-bye to each other at Beijing No. 80 High School on the night of August 13 as the 2007 Good Luck Beijing Summer Camp drew to a tearful close.
Foreign campers will not forget their good time in Beijing for quite a while. No doubt they will tell their schoolmates, friends and family members about their experience and prepare to get together in Beijing again.
They thanked the Beijing Municipal Education Commission and the Media and Communications Department of the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad (BOCOG) and wished the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games a resounding success.
During their four-day stay in China's capital city, the young campers attended some Good Luck Beijing sport events, toured the city's scenic spots and cultural relics, and spent one day as guests in ordinary families. They took part in sport games, showed the typical products of their countries, felt the charm of the Olympic host city, and experienced Beijing's preparatory work for the Olympics.

Saying good-bye is difficult.
