The first picture on the left shows several of the reunion attendees entering the visitor center of the Olympic village.

After going through the gift shop we were directed to the auditorium for a short video presentation about the Olympic Village.

The 3rd. and 4th. pictures were taken right after the video presentation in the auditorium as the reunion attendees gathered out side the visitor center to begin the tour.

The 1st. picture were taken right after the video presentation in the auditorium as the reunion attendees gathered out side the visitor center to begin the tour. Our tour guide, who was a part of a previous olympic team, gave a thorough description of each section of the village and answered many questions. She had a very distictive voice quality.

The 2nd picture, Several of the training buildings were not open to the public or were just looked into from the outside.
