Our Room at the Hotel Plaza, Torinovu 370 foisWe were able to find a hotel room in Torino for our last two nights at the Olympics. Our hotel, the grandly-named Hotel Plaza, was clean and remarkably inexpensive. But the room was also very, very "compact."

Me Sitting on a Chair Outside the Oval Lingottovu 367 foisWe went to see the speed skating at the new Oval Lingotto.

I sat on this chair in the parking lot until they brought around an electric cart a few minutes later.
