I didn't think I would be that excited about the royal wedding. I thought I'd be more excited about the fact that I don't have to work (which is true to a certain extent).
On Wednesday morning when I left my house, I saw that two of my neighbours have the union jack flying proudly on their front doors, including pictures of the royal couple that caught me by surprise. And then there are the news and newspapers. Reporting non-stop about the wedding. And then I hear from friends saying that London streets are all pomped up for the wedding, decked with union jack bunting, flags, and what have you.. so with all these combined, I couldn't help but become very excited. So much so that it did cross my mind to venture down to Westminister for a peek on the actual day haha.. ok eventually I held back coz my logical mind took over. It would make more sense to watch it on the telly with my friends in the comforts of my living room.
Today after work, I arranged to meet my friend K for a quick dinner, and then I had a brilliant idea. To make a detour to catch some action!
So here is reporter Bel, reporting from Westminister.
Look at the crowd camping outside the abbey.
Love this pic of the flags and the Big Ben; police guarding the Westminister Abbey
This is no ordinary man. He is the first man in the queue outside the Abbey. He was interviewed by BBC as he has been camping here since Tuesday! I saw people posing for photos with him as he sat there happily.
Look at the crowd. All the keen royalists.
I like this. Yes it could have been me.
Now what am I doing tomorrow? I have invited some good friends over for a pancake breakfast and we are gonna glue our eyes to the telly. Ooh can't wait!
