So, what do athletes that don’t have a chance of winning a medal in the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games do for fun? They show up a couple of weeks early under pretenses of getting over jet lag perhaps, but to enjoy life at the Olympic Village.
Xinhua captured some photos of athletes already in the village.

The Olympic Village will house some 16,000 athletes from more than 200 countries. Many of them will be participating in other kinds of sport, if you know what I mean.
