Buckingham Palace

We went to Buckingham Palace today and got to see the guards standing smartly to attention out the front - and some policemen leaning on the corner of the building chatting to each other.

Dad did not think too much of Buckingham Palace and can see why the queen prefers to spend her weekends at Windsor Castle. The Palace (on the outside at least) is fairly bland and does not have any where near the character of Windsor Castle.

The gardens were in full bloom and there were lots and lots of people taking photos of themselves, the buildings and monuments.
