Rio 2016
The International Olympic Committee announced today that the 2016 games would be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Interestingly Chicago was in the running but was the first to be eliminated. Here is a look at the other future Olympic sites as well as a video that makes me want to visit Brazil.
2010 (Winter Games) – Vancouver, Canada
2012 (Summer Games) – London, England
2014 (Winter Games) – Sochi, Russia
2016 (Summer Games) – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Another interesting face: Detroit has attempted to host the games six times and have been denied all six times, making them the most rejected city.
