The ahtletesʼ flight was half an hour late, but they were then quickly bused to the hall for a ceremonious reception just before 9.30 am.
Canoer Danuta Kozak was one of the most popular of the athletes; she won three gold medals at the Games.
The Olympic team walked into the hall led by Katinka Hosszu and her husband and coach Shane Tusup. Hosszu won three golds and one silver in various swimming events.
All Olympic winners were called to the stage one by one to be greeted by fans.
