    About this ebook

    This ebook is designed to help you get the most out of your visit to the London Olympics. Everything you need to get to your Olympic is all here in one book. The layout is designed so that you see the venue and the general area of London it is in. A short description is followed by the best way to get to your venue, National Rail, London Underground or Dockland Light Railway (DLR). Links to other methods such as the London Overground, bus/coach services, river or park and ride. Several areas of interest in close proximity to the venue are also provided. London is a beautiful city so you may even have the opportunity to walk or cycle. There are lots of links in this ebook, usually I dislike doing this but as this is a guide and many of you will want to discover other things I think the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Enjoy.
