1) I guess they probably do, but I've never seen one. Did you know that the Turkish word for the bird is "Hindi"? Why is it that that bird gets so many countries named after it?

2) Yes, it did go past my front door. It was really noisy outside, and I couldn't concentrate on my maths homework, so I went to see what it was. There was this... like... MASS of people waving flags and screaming and cheering. As you can probably imagine, I was slightly shocked. Then the torch ran past, and I ran along side it for a bit. It was EPIC! Lol :)
