The Olympic flame has been lit on Mount Olympia* Greece 🇬🇷 kicking off the torch relay for the 2024 Paris Olympics. Ahead of each Summer Olympics, the torch is lit in the ancient site where the games were founded, connecting the event back to its roots. Before beginning its journey across 400 towns and cities in 65 regions of the French territories and landing in Marseille on May 8.
* Olympus as mountain and Olympia as venue for the Olympics: a question about the naming of these places. Mount Olympus was the mythical home of the 12 gods in Ancient Greek history. According to the myth, When the Olympian gods won the battle, they created their new majestic home – Mount Olympus.
The Olympic Games of the Modern Era were inspired by the aristocrat and educator at the Sorbonne-Paris, Baron Pierre de Coubertin.
Greek mythology - the importance of Mount Olympus, a place inhabited by the gods of ancient Greece, to Olympia, one of the main sites of the Hellenic Games, describes the Olympic Games.
Also, The Heranos Games (in honour of the goddess Hera) are portrayed, with the first participation of women as athletes, which nowadays is greatly encouraged by the international Olympic movement.

#266 #366 #100daystogo 1. There was some jolly activity down at Jacks Lock this morning. The CRT - that’s Canal River Trust, have to spend a lot of time sorting out the water levels and the flow of the canal, checking the locks for leaks and generally keeping the Grand Union Canal navigable. . 2. Yup - that’s me - a little pensive today after the government announcement concerning weddings only for 15 people now probably for the next 6 months. It’s tough on wedding planning couples - some are now postponing for the 3rd time. So I’m now very much looking forward to 2021 and 2022! In the meantime, luckily there’s been a fair amount of other photography work needed. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽📸📸📸. . . . . #Londonphotographer #headshotsLondon #productphotographer #specialistbrandphotographer #businessbrandphotographer #loveisnotpostponed #loveislove slove #hertfordshirephotographer #brandphotographer #businessphotographer #littlestories #littlestoriesofmylife #marketingphotographer #advertisingphotographer #weddingphotography #petphotographerLondon #portraitphotographer #familyphotographerlondonhertfordshire #familyphotographerlondon (at Grand Union Canal - Uxbridge to Watford) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFdKTsNhghu/?igshid=qq7lz0upkmfk

Even the Eiffel Tower is gearing up. 🗼In 100 days, Paris 🇫🇷 will host the most famous sporting jamboree on the planet: the Summer Olympic Games.
There will be action across 32 sports watched by millions of visitors, as well as an unprecedented opening ceremony set to take place on the River Seine, which runs through the city’s heart. At least, that is plan A, anyway — Emmanuel Macron, the French president, confirmed an off-river contingency for the first time on Monday.

OMG I CAN BARELY BELIEVE THAT I AM ALREADY IN DOUBLE DIGITS FOR DAYS REMAINING UNTIL I BECOME A 70 POINT THREE ER!
OK, that’s better. LOL.
After postponing this morning’s bike ride, I went about my day and my goodness does the time go by fast! The “Summer afternoon storms” are here already, so when the sun is out, you gotta take it. Not taking it, and receiving a text from your accountability partner with a picture of her riding in Toms (because she forgot her sneakers), AND in the rain (because she misjudged the storm) during her lunch break means you ride in the bedtime moonlight.
Photographic proof sent by my accountability/training partner/friend.
A few bugs, but it was actually pretty peaceful! I’m not sure if I love working out at night, but I don’t necessarily love getting up so dang early either! Something’s gotta give, eh?
I have my first swim workout of this plan tomorrow morning, so let’s see how happy I am after that! For now though, I’m good.

As of today, I have 100 days left of my college career. My time in this beautiful country is slowly coming to an end, and despite so much negativity around us currently, I am eternally thankful and grateful for this experience. Over the next 100 days, I'm going to Instagram pictures of people/places/food/things that have shaped and enriched my journey. Hope you all like it 😌 #PICTURE 1/100 - PALM trees at Venice Beach #losangeles #palmtrees #claremont #cmc #venicebeach #santamonica #graduation #100daystogo #college #hollywood #cityofangels #february #februaryphotochallenge #februaryphotoadaychallenge #spring #summer #winter #fall #timetravel #dinela #movies #music #lalaland (at Venice, California)
