Biden arrived in Paris a day before the Summer Games' opening ceremony on the Seine River. She will watch athletes parade on a flotilla of boats Friday after a reception with French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte, at the Élysée Palace. "As they leap, and sprint, and turn, America's athletes aren't only propelled by the years of sweat and sacrifice they've poured into their training," she said in front of a giant USA cutout colored with the American flag. "Your love is also there, pushing them further, helping them go faster, lifting them higher as they reach for gold."
