Changing the Guard


Changing the guard at Buckingham Palace is must see in London, even if you can't hear what the guards are shouting to each other and you spend half the time on your tippy toes trying to look over other people who are also standing on their tippy toes.

It was a lot of fuss just to swap guards over, really. But at least it provides entertainment. The ceremony is accompanied by a brass band, which played various predictable pieces of music, and also Queen's We are the Champions. And also another song, which the people next to me (a whole group of them) seemed to know. They started singing along.
