The Wedding
So yes, I am crazy and I decided to go into London the day of the Royal wedding with a couple of friends. It was already super crowded when we got to London around 7:30. The three of us ended up standing on the Mall near the Admiralty Arch, which wasn't quite along the rout but we could see anyone coming down it as they turned near the Horse Guards Parade. We stayed to see the procession/motorcade thing in in the morning but then Kelly wanted to go to Trafalgar Square to watch the wedding itself on the big screens. Unfortunately, it was full and they wouldn't let us back along the route since they had closed off the area. We ended up walking to Hyde Park and watching the end half of the wedding itself on the huge screens there through to the balcony and the end of the coverage. We did get to see the jets fly over us which was cool. Although we didn't get to see much in person, it was still amazing just to experience being in London on that day and seeing the massive crowds all over.
