{Special thank you to Courtney for sending me a few photos of London. Thanks lady!}
I remember the first time I went to London and visited Buckingham Palace. {The Queen was in, as I'm sure she was awaiting our date for high tea.}
Standing outside in the cold air with my face pressed against the steel fence, I tried to catch a glimpse of the soldiers in their royal uniforms as they participated in the Changing of the Guards ceremony. This was a highlight of my first time in UK and my heart swelled with pride as for a moment I felt as if they were personally protecting me and that I was in fact a true Brit.
Four years later, I am looking forward to going back to The Palace and witnessing this beauty of a tradition. I'll be sure to give The Queen, Wills and Kate my love.
Cheers!
{p.s. If you would like to submit photos of London and/or The UK, please feel free to email them to me. I would love to hear from you and would be happy to link back to your blog.}

Glad you could use the picture! Buckingham is the best- especially when there's cute little ladies wearing feathered hats.
