The next day we visited London and had a walking tour guided by Katy from London Walks.

Flags are an important accessory for the IMO. This one had some typographical peculiarities in the safety notice on the packaging.

 Note the acute accents on every E

Some of the time the weather was good for playing with a frisbee on Trinity Old Field.

 Tennisbee!

There was time for other games as well.
