Paris 2024 Olympics: Day 9

We've hit the last day of swimming, which always means a turning point in the Summer Olympics. For us, that meant Alison had a tough transportation day, and Jill explored the canoe slalom venue, which of course means new toilets to report on. Then she headed to Ireland House to check out some of the hospitality house scene. Was it worth it? Plus, TKFLASTAN gets a world record!
