London has hosted the Olympics 3 times, making it the city that has hosted the highest number of Olympic Games. The first time was in 1908 when it stepped in for Rome after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Then in 1948 it again stepped in at the last moment to hold the first Olympic Games after WWII and finally now in 2012 it will host the Olympic Games for a third time. This, however, is the first time that London has had time to prepare and properly organize the Games.
