LONDON -- Arriving in a plane with a gold-painted nose cone and victoRIOus emblazoned on the livery, Britains Olympic team returned home Tuesday to jubilant scenes after the countrys record-breaking medal haul in Brazil.Max Whitlock and Nicola Adams, who won three of Britains 27 gold medals in Rio de Janeiro, were the first Olympians to emerge from the plane at Londons Heathrow Airport and stood at the top of the stairs as the rest of the team filed out to cheers and applause.Children crouched in front of the barriers clutching small British flags, and friends, family and well-wishers -- adorned with union flags and red, white and blue balloons -- welcomed home the 320-strong team of athletes and support staff.Britain won 67 medals to finish second in the gold medal table, behind the United States, and became the first country to improve on a home medal haul at the next games, having collected 65 at the 2012 Olympics in London.More than 35 percent of Britains team in Rio won a medal.Rower Katherine Grainger, who won silver to pick up a medal at a fifth straight Olympics, said the success of Britains team had lifted a nation splintered by Britains divisive vote in June to leave the European Union.It has almost felt like it has been a tough year for the country, a lot has happened politically in the nation in the last few months, Grainger said.
