The Winter Olympics get underway on Friday in the Russian city of Sochi - and Team Germany took off from Frankfurt Airport headed for the Games. Among them - Alpine-Skiing-champion Maria Höfl-Riesch. She's one of 153 athletes representing Germany. The German Olympic Sports Confederation is hoping to win at least 30 medals, to match their success at the last winter Olympics in Vancouver.
