Review of Richmond Olympic Oval

Everyone who likes sports should visit the Olympic Oval.

There's a short movie showing how hard it is to become an athlete and succeed (lots of training, falls, start over and over again). It's difficult to watch it without tears coming to your eyes.

There's also an interesting simulator where you can drive" a bobsled (great!) and another where you can "jump" from a ski platform (not so great).

It's a very nice place to visit, specially if you are into sports.

Nice staff, plenty of parking and a gift store.

Also, Olympic medals from previous competitions all over the world are on display.
