Picking up from the last post, we continue our day as tourists. As it would turn out, we couldn't have picked a more appropriate day for our next stop.

Buckingham Palace! So turns out it was Veteran's Day, but unfortunately we arrived too late to see the parade they had here only an hour or so before we arrived. At this point, the queen was already tucked back into her corgi-filled manor, but there were still several military groups out to pay respects to V-Day.

Pretty snazzy gates they have here.

First time we saw these guys and they're as funny to see in person as they are in pictures and cartoons. They all looked so pissed off, though I would be too if I were forced to march around in those hats.

Pretty day, pretty place. All for the queen of course.

More fancy gates, thanks to... Canada?

After a peaceful stroll through the park, we unknowingly made our way over to one of the WWII Veterans memorials.

As we left the memorials, there was a nearby Vespa meet! It seemed like they're were mostly ridden by older Veterans as most of them were sporting their badges from service on their coats. Some of them were pretty accessorized out, I think there was a contest to see who can put the most amount of lights on their scooters.
