French authorities are preparing to host a 1,000-boat armada accompanying the Olympic flame on its arrival into the Mediterranean port of Marseille. The Olympic torch finally enters France when it reaches the southern seaport of Marseille on Wednesday May 8, 2024, on an armada from Greece. After leaving Marseille a vast relay route will be undertaken before the torch's odyssey ends on July 27 in Paris. (AP Photo/Daniel Cole, File)
