I went up on the mount on the day of his state funeral....some of the most poignent moments ive ever experienced....up the top of the mountain, their are condolence messages written all over the protective barriers, flowers all over the wire railings...i was speaking to a council worker who was up there doing preparations for the race this year, and they are going to move the flowers, but they aren't going to paint over the condolence messages, they are going to leave them there as a tribute to the great man.
