Going to the Royal Wedding was a very spontaneous event for my friend Liz and I. We decided to get the first train from Canterbury to London at 2 AM the day of. We each got about 2 hours of sleep and highly caffeinated ourselves once we got to London!

I could easily compare the amount of hype in the air for the wedding to the Superbowl in the States. Everyone is really excited, wants to have a good time, a lot of alcohol and tons of security.

Liz and I got to London at about 8:30 and we could walk around pretty freely but as time went on it took longer and longer to walk from point A to point B. After walking down the Mall for an hour trying to find a good spot we planted ourselves on the edge of a fountain in Trafalgar Square to watch the wedding on a massive screen. We chose to watch it on the big screen rather then stand for 3 hours along the Mall just to watch the procession.

I am so jealous that you were actually in London for the wedding! I was just watching it on TV in my pajamas, haha. Your experience was obviously a thousand times cooler.
