This is reportedly (from private sources whose name I must protect with my virginity) where the mens' and womens' basketball teams (USA as far as I know..maybe others) are going to be staying through the Olympics!
:shock: IMPRESSIVE!!

I think it might just be the U.S. teams staying there. All the athletes are going to be in the Olympic village. The families get to stay with the teams on the ship.
Diana is happy because she gets to have her own room. |

i say, the pictures on the webpage don't do that beast justice.
i mentioned that they had a little segment on that thing on VH1. silly VH1 only said the US Men's bball team were staying there... little do they know.
THAT THING IS HUGE. and all US olympic athletes would have PLENTY of room if they stayed on that thing.
i think they said there is 10 restaurants on there and a several pools AND the most important thing.... it has the largest dancefloor on the ocean :D |

ARE YOU KIDDING?
if only the basketball teams are staying there, then i would assume they would let their families stay there as well..?
that thing is a MONSTER. there's no way it's only them!! that thing is some 11 stories tall! |

As of right now, I have only heard about the U.S. basketball teams staying on there. Their families are also staying on the ship.
The other athletes will be in the Olympic Village. |

Paper said that Greek coast guard watching the harbor where the ship will be (along w/ others) beat the snot out of some Mexican photojournalists who were filming the harbor for a news piece. No one was hospitalized, though. They said it was a misunderstanding
Olympic security ala Abu Ghirab? |
