Off to London - Trip 1 - Buckingham Palace

Last week, first of the places that we visited was the Bucingham palace to see the "Changing of Guards". Amma and Purnima prepared Rava Idli and Upma for breakfast and lunch and off we were by 8:00 in the morning.
We travelled through several modes of transport, first of them was the bus. Amma and Appa seen waiting for the bus.
Next in line was the travel in the famous underground tube of London.


Changing of Guards is a ceremony that is held every day by 11:00 at the Buckingham Palace grounds. We should be at the place much before that time to catch a favourable place to view the proceedings.

Very Soon, people were cleared of the way and place made clear for the guards to arrive.

Right after that, Guards were seen performing their march-past with enthusiasts cheering them and enjoying the ceremony.

Band seen perfroming for the huge crowd gathered.

Well, though the cermony was continuing, we had seen what we had wanted and moved on.
