Okay, I love your blog name, and your tagline. It's so clever! And thanks for the kind words about my blog. You made my day!

I've been to London several times, but never saw the changing of the guards. If I had known I could have checked it off an internet meme in my later years, I would have made it more of a priority. LOL!!

Thanks for playing!

We stumbled by it completely accidental!! We hadn't even planned on seeing Buckingham Palace, but in our attempt to drive out of London--pause and take that statement in for a while--we came upon all this hubbub and realized that we were at Buckingham Palace!
