Today, I decided that I would try and walk around where the wedding festivities were going to be taking place on Friday. Without really knowing it at the time (I found out when I looked it up on the internet when I got home), I ended up walking the exact route of the procession. It will be starting at Buckingham Palace, going down The Mall, through Horse Guards Parade, down Whithall Street past the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben and finally ending at Westminster Abbey. After the ceremony, the procession will reverse the exact same route. Below are the pictures I took while on the walk.

| The Horse Guard Parade...the Procession will go right through the middle arch |
