IOC Drops by to Say Hi

The IOC is baaaaaack, led by Jean-Claude Killy (an alpine skiing great, no less, and one of the few athletes in the IOC) to take a looksee at what is going on in Sochi these days.  This is the fifth IOC delegation to visit Sochi and the first since the 'successful' showing of the alpine course earlier this year except for, you know, the fear of an avalanche.  Per the IOC's website:
The Commission will be in the Black Sea resort for the next three days, and will combine technical meetings with visits to some of the venue sites, in order to see the progress being made for the Games. The Commission will look at areas such as Games operations and services and the experience of different client groups like the athletes, National Olympic Committees, International Federations, spectators and the media. There will also be a working group looking at the Paralympic Games during the visit.
 And that's about that, for now.  Once the full report comes out I'll be sure to link to it here and discuss it here
