The Olympic Journey exhibition, the ROH

If you happen to be in London, it will be well worth the effort visiting the Olympics exhibition at the Royal Opera House.  I went yesterday and there was a 45 minute queue in fairly stuffy conditions, but I wouldn't have missed it for the world.  It is free of charge and closes tomorrow, so will undoubtedly be packed.

Olga Korbut is honoured in the exhibition; you can see a video of her here.

And find out more information about the exhibition here.

Please do go, it has been a highlight of the Olympics in London for me, helping me to understand the importance of the Olympic spirit and to appreciate the link between past and present Olympics.
