On Friday, the Olympic Games started in Tokyo.

They are one year late.

In 2020, Covid-19 stopped the Olympic Games.

People watched the Olympic Games together.

But they watched on television.

Covid is a big problem again in Japan.

People in Japan cannot have Olympic parties.

These Olympic Games are different.

Lots of people love the Olympics.

They are very happy.

One Olympics superfan had a Tokyo 2020 party at home.

In London, Olympics lovers watched the start too.

They saw the beautiful stadium on TV.

The stadium is for 68,000 people.

There were only 1,000 in it.

For Anthony, the empty stadium isn’t a problem.

The Olympics are important.

They bring countries together.

One Japanese student wanted to return home for the Olympics.

She could not get back.

But she’s happy.

She can enjoy them from London.

Tokyo 2020 is different for sportspeople.

The stadium is very quiet, but millions of people around the world will watch it.

This is certain.
