Default Olympics

I thought this would be a cool idea. Can someone possibly locate the locations of some of the places where the olympics where located and tell what year. Possibly go back to the early ages of the oylmpics and locate and pinpoint the location of the collosieum. Just thought this would be a cool idea so people could see the locations of the oylmpics throughout the years. I'm only asking for a few and not all of the oylmpic places because that would take years of research to find them all. Reply to this if you think this idea is cool or if you'd like to find them and help participate. I'll even try to locate some of the locations myslef and locate the year and post the downloads when I'm done. (This may take a while lol.)

Very good idea. The colosseum has already been found, but putting together a collection of the other olympic locations would be pretty cool.

Default thanks

thank you for your support. I don't know how to upload files. I know where to go on the site, but don't know where to find my saved file from G.E. oh by the way I found Warner Bros. Studios that I was looking for I'll upload it once someone tells me how to.

**Perhaps these placemarks should be included in one of the other kmz files**

Although the structures are no longer standing, here are the approximate locations of the Beach Volleyball Center that was in place at Bondi Beach for Sydney 2000:
