We got up early to ensure a good spot for the famous Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace. I highly recommed reading Fodor's Travel book. They give you tips on when and what spot would be the best for major events. Some pictures from changing of the guard.Here's a video of the changing of the guard.

We also had a great photo op with one of the guardsman at St. James Palace.

Taking a leisure walk at St. James Park We came to London to visit the Queen:) at Buckingham PalaceWe strolled to the streets of London and the Royal Academy of Arts was hosting an exhibit for Rodin---sculptor famous for The Thinker and The Gates of Hell.
