Durban - It's only a matter of hours before an announcement is made on which of one of the three cities - Munich, Annecy and Pyeongchang - will get to host the 2018 Games.
The German delegation, making presentations for Munich, said they have the capacity to host the new sport events added this week to the Winter Olympics.
It was announced this week that more youthful and entertaining games like ski slopestyle, snowboard slopestyle and snowboard parallel special slalom will be included in the sports programme.
Germany's bid was sold mainly on being a country that is passionate both off and on the field. They showed that recent events, including the current FIFA Women's World Cup, have enjoyed record attendance by fans. Full attendance is something they feel they cannot not only promise but guarantee.
Delegates making presentations emphasised that there are no white elephant sporting venues in Munich and their support for athletes go beyond Germans.
Soccer great Franz Beckenbauer, during his short speech, joked that should Munich win the bid, he would commence training from Thursday to become a volunteer in 2018.
The Germans also promised an environmentally friendly Olympics, which has been a cornerstone of their bid over the past two years.
There will be no building of new venues in Munich, unless there is a need for it. If they were to win the bid, they would use sporting venues that were utilised in the 1972 games.
Katarina Witt, a member of the Munich 2018 Bid Committee, said at a recent press conference that Germany is already a world leader in environmental management.
"We truly believe in environmental protection as a social ethic - that's why we're committed to staging the first ever carbon-neutral Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games and extending Munich's remarkable sustainability story."
From a tourist point of view, Munich has plenty to offer when visitors take a break from the games. There are 20 museums and galleries that showcase both ancient and new art, theatre and a host of designer stores.
Meanwhile, the French said the beautiful French Alps will be the perfect host for the Winter Olympics.
Freestyle skier Kevin Rolland even went as far as saying that France is home to winter sports.
Rolland also expressed his delight that he can now compete in the Olympics after his type of sports were included in the games.
The French reiterated that its citizens are now fully behind the bid. At some point during their preparations, polls showed that the French people were not too supportive of the bid.
Bid delegates said not only are the French supporting the bid, they are also a nation of sport lovers.
South Korea's Pyeongchang bid team led an emotionally charged bid, constantly using the words "patience and persistence."
Having closely losing out on two bids previously, South Korea said they have risen from disappointment and are trying again because they want to inspire people all over the world.
The South Koreans throughout their presentation said they would like to continue to grow winter sport around the world. Their 'Dream Program' supports this desire by teaching kids, including those from South Africa, how to ski.
South Korean athletes formed part of the presentation and underlined the importance of the Olympic Games.
The South Korean government has fully backed the bid and is said to have invested substantial amounts of money in developing winter sports in and out of their country.
