At the Wedding.......well at least in close proximity....

Some friends of mine planned a trip to London some time ago.

Unfortunately, or fortunately for them, it just happened to fall on the same dates that much later, William and Kate decided to set for their wedding!

So now they are serendipitously caught up in the Royal Kerfuffle, so to speak.

They were at the Palace, with a crowd already forming 16 hours in advance.  Prince William came out and mingled with the crowd around an hour after they left the area. 

They just missed him!


The crowd is already gathering

Bobbies keeping the crowds in line

The Guard at Buckingham Palace: All is calm

The press is reporting non-stop

Hyde park has it's Ginormous screens set up

And what does it cost to rent here at Kensington? $1400 per WEEK

To buy a little over 1300 square foot "flat"? $2.5 million Canadian.



The temporary media building constructed just for the Wedding. Any coverage
you watch, will be from this building.


Getting ready!


So, just a little close-up as to what to expect if you are there...................

Here is the link to the route and also live streaming coverage if you are so inclined.

Me?

I will be working.
