South Korean swimmers leave Olympic village: bus feels like sauna

South Korean swimmers have left the Olympic Village, the Korea Times reports.

The athletes complained about the heat on the buses and preferred to stay in a hotel near the pool.
“It’s cooler outside than in the bus. It’s like a sauna. Usually the journey from the Olympic Village to the pool takes 40-45 minutes, but today it took us more than an hour and a half,” the athletes explained. They noted that the windows were taped up, presumably out of fear of terrorist attacks.

The Olympic Games will last until August 11. The winners and runners-up will receive medals that contain a metal fragment taken from the Eiffel Tower.
