The 2012 Summer Olympics: One Month Countdown
By Contikivacations | June 27, 2012
The opening ceremony for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, hosted in London, is slated for July 27, 2012 - exactly one month from today! We've professed our love for London on many occasions, most notably because many of our Contiki Europe memories begin in London.
In homage to the wonderful city of London as they prepare for the Olympic Games, our 'Where To? Wednesday' is visually highlighting all things British and gearing you up for the destination that will have one giant spotlight on it come July!
