Few days old but haven't seen mentioned... Nba players taking it up a notch
Say what now!!
Exposed wiring and leaking sewage has led some athletes to dub the Olympic village in Rio uninhabitable — but there will be no such concerns for the richest team at this year’s Games.
When the American basketball teams arrive in Rio, they will check into a luxury cruise liner moored off the coast.
With a library, beauty salon, casino and four fine-dining restaurants, the Silver Cloud liner, which charges £10,000 a week to rent a suite, is far removed from the basic furnishings and shared rooms of the athletes’ village.
