Final Medal Count of the Countries I Have Visited!


I am so sad to see the London Olympics go away. Waking up every day to see my favorite city ever(!) on the TV, Internet, radio, FaceBook Twitter, Tumbler what have you has been BRILLIANT!

I thought it would be fun to see how many medals were won by each individual country I have visited.
I know the games are not about the medal count or at least they shouldn't be about the quantity - it's about quality, eh?
