Rzeszow is a great city. It has many attractions that most cities in today’s world don’t have. Just the map in the small guidebook is a little bit confusing. The tasks were difficult. This olympiad is said to be harderthan typical international olympiads but we should wait for the results because I can’t predict anything.

Pics from KielnarowaOn Tuesday afternoon the participants and team leaders visited the Center of Tourism and Recreation inKielnarowa where they were shown the complex consisted of the didactic building, the hotel and the sports hall.
CORRECTIONIn the bulletin no. 2 it was written that a member of Poland 1 group, Filip Wolski, lives in Danzig (Germany). Of course he lives in Gdansk – very beautiful Polish city. We are very sorry about the mistake.
Afterwards they sweated blood in the sports hall playing games where again they competed with each other. To sumup the day, they relaxed by the fireplace grilling, chatting and thinking about the contest coming up the next day.
