Our last event for this trip, and the first event of track and field (athletics).
What a great experience to be in the stadium where it happens. Despite sharing it with lots and lots of ‘friends’. The excitement was exhilarating.
Thank you, Olympics!
Flying saucers, lights or art? Maybe all of the above!The new aquatic center is the only new event building constructed for the Olympics.Only a little backup trying to get 75,000 people through bag check. To be honest, it moved pretty fast!Stade de France is the national stadium of France, located just north of Paris in the commune of Saint-Denis. Its seating capacity of 80,698 makes it the largest stadium in France. The stadium is used by the French national football and rugby union teams for international competitions. It is the largest in Europe for athletics events, seating 77,083 in that configuration. During other events, the stadium’s running track is mostly hidden under the football pitch.
