Gymnast Gabrielle Douglas speaks in Orlando

ORLANDO, Fla. — U.S. gymnast and two-time Olympic gold medalist Gabrielle Douglas was in Orlando to talk about her journey to the Olympics Thursday.

Hundreds of people packed the Orlando Public Library’s central location to hear her speak.

Douglas also promoted her new book.

She told Channel 9 life’s been hectic since she got back from the Summer Olympics in London.

“After the Olympics, my life has just been a whirlwind and it’s been a little bit crazy, but along the road, I’m just enjoying it,” said Douglas.

She was presented the keys to both the city of Orlando and Orange County.
