Long wait for a train at Charle de Gaulle airport ? The airport is served by the the RER B, there is a train every 5 minutes leaving from the airport at rush hours.
I'm French, I don't particularly like Paris and won't be following the games. But this video sparked an interest. There seem to be quite a few good decisions in there. Well done Paris for trying to achieve carbon neutrality, reusing older facilities, repurposing buildings into social ones, the use of wood buildings etc.. Thank you for this interesting video
I watch a lot of Olympic Coverage. For instance, Sochi. The lighting of there Cauldron. The Cauldron was outside the Stadium. It was breath taking. As was Beijing. Los Angeles 2028 will need something different than the same old 1932 and 1984 Cauldron. Robin Roberts of ABC. I have a Great Idea if Los Angeles reads this. How about putting the Cauldron outside near the Statues Similar to Sochi.
The actual pool in Rio was relocated and the stadium was never meant to house it permanently. The competition pool in Paris is also temporary pool. The permenant aquatics centre is hosting diving, water polo and artistic swimming
I love that Paris is hosting and that it's already made for mega events like this. Don't love the prospect of athletes swimming sh*t-infested/infected waters even after $1.5B and a waste-water treatment plant later...
