BuzzFeed was given access to the park three days before it opens to the public. This article also features an unexpected cameo by Tom Daley. Yes. Really.
The north of the park opened last July. The swimming pool opened last month. The velodrome opened just a couple of weeks ago, but there's still 27 acres of the park not opened yet to the public.
This changes on Saturday. The park will be open at last... transformed from a nice space to pass time between sporting events events to a park that actually will be enjoyed by tourists and residents alike.
The Aquatics Centre, which is nearest to the as-yet unopened south side of the park, is impressive.
That huge artificial seating at each side? Gone.
But it wasn't as impressive as what I stumbled across inside.

THIS IS A WORLD EXCLUSIVE.
Tom Daley training in the Olympic pool. This is a day of wonder. A day of beauty.
Oh and I forgot where the zoom was on my camera so he's a bit far.
