Olympic Sailing in Marseille

We took a city bus from our hotel to the Olympic sailing site.  Whitney’s family met us soon after we arrived.  We entered with our bar codes, then looked around the site.  It was a very hot day without much wind, so the first event, women’s windsurfing, was delayed for about an hour waiting for more wind.  There were giant tv screens on site and a few tents.  We sat under a tent, in view of a large screen tv.  The competitions were too far out to sea for us to watch, and know who was in the lead.  All in, it was a very interesting experience!
