Russian teams' departure from Moscow - video

The teams have, in fact, arrived safely in London, and I hope they are resting and not too distracted by all the Olympic hype here.  This morning I went and watched the Olympic torch relay at Woolwich, in the Royal Borough of Greenwich in south east London.  There was a big turn out in the early morning sunshine, and lots of smiling faces.  Let these be happy Games.

The gymnastics team has caught the attention of the Russian media and a number of news videos have appeared showing them during check in this morning.  They are worth a viewing for sight of a very healthy looking Grishina, Mustafina in full command of herself on the TV screen, all the team there resplendent in their outfits.  There are some interviews with Mustafina and Garibov.
