Centre of Attention

This is Raquel Matos - the first torchbearer of the Olympic Torch relay today. This was taken just a couple of minutes before the relay started. She looked like she was enjoying being the centre of attention.

I got up especially early to go into town to watch it as I missed the relay yesterday.

I was a bit sceptical, but it was a great atmosphere.
