Darrel and I walked all around town today. Many of you have asked about how it feels being here in London with the Royal Wedding coming up. It's very strange, but I think that it is probably more popular back in the States than it truly is here. When we were waiting for our Visas to come and were still in Chicago, it seemed that all the news programs were talking about it. Once we got here, you really don't hear anyone talking about it, unless it is a tourist or you happen to walk by a tourist stand selling Royal Wedding Merchandise. I made Darrel walk to Regent Street (it's one of the main shopping streets here in London...to give you an idea, the main Apple Store is on Regent Street), because I heard they started stringing up flags all down the street. Supposedly they are flying over 200 flags, and the above picture is what it looks like. The funny and ironic thing is...the procession is not even going down this street. However, I thought you all would get a kick out of it.
We also strolled through Regent's Park today...
Beautiful!!!!! I am absolutely amazed at how beautiful London is. Your pics are awesome and thank you so much for keeping us all updated. Love you both - Mom
