      @@manuelgordillo520 I remember it was warm during those Winter Olympics (around +23 °С). You could watch the competition and then bask in the sun and take a dip in the sea (which some people did). So sometimes the difference is quite subtle

    Thanks Brent, It's going to be a huge party during the Paris Olympics games. The opening ceremony will take place on the river "La Seine". The athletes will parade on boats dedicated to each country.
    The ceremony is placed under great secrecy to know who will sing or dance, nevertheless at this moment we know that several artists have arrived in Paris like Lady Gaga, Céline Dion, Snoop Dog, we do not think that they come to Paris only to "perform" shopping this weekend.😁🥇

    Brent, yes, the American swimmers are the most successful to date, Mickael Phelps, without forgetting Mark Spitz. Though there will be an Olympic competition against the French guys like Léon Marchand, Florent Manaudou and many others who will be very physically sharp.
    May the best win.
