Europe Day 8: Olympic Museum

Tuesday morning we went to the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, home to the International Olympic Committee (IOC).


The museum was very impressive. We started with a group guided tour, which was somewhat interesting, but not nearly as interesting as just wandering around on our own was.


I learned a lot about the history of the different Games...if anyone is ever in Lausanne, the Olympic Museum is a must visit place...





Had another kabob from another Greek fast food place for lunch, which was again quite good...then we had the afternoon free...so I took a nap. Much of the group went on a lengthy walk to a tower that apparently would have been much cooler if the weather had not been so foggy.

For dinner, I went to a little tea shop with a couple people and bought a rather dry, lousy sandwich, then went with a different group to a Chinese place near the train station, which was much more satisfying. That pretty much covers Tuesday...
