Description : The Olympic torch took off from the Tuileries with more than an hour delay this evening. Many disappointed tourists decided not to wait and went back home. However, several hundred people still waited after 11 p.m. to see the flame and the balloon rise in the Parisian sky. Some took advantage of the wait to watch the swimming event and support Léon Marchand.
