London Spies walk
      After having spent this week studying and then taking two exams, I was able to take the guided walk about spies in London.  It was mainly focused on the Cambridge Five spy ring, but briefly touched on Sidney Reilly.  It was a lot of fun, like the one we took in DC a couple of years ago.  It started in Piccadilly Circus, so took a couple of pictures since I haven't yet (though I see it at least once a week)
