Red is the Queens Colour




The Guards Museum has a large collection of Britian toy soldiers. Red is the colour of the guards and the mail and other important features of the Queens own. Note that the fire vehicle is the Royal House Hold Fire Service.

The Queens Guards





Saw the changing of the Guard with a band concert. Very impressive and beautiful. The Irish Guards are in both their dress and combat uniform.

Londay 1, April 2010





We are in London, history, beautiful and impressive. Here are some photos of the Royal Mews (stables)of Queen Elizabeh II. This is part of the Buckingham Palace complex and is not your common smelly stables as it includes five Rolls-Royce Phantoms. Queen Victoria was the first monarch to use these working stables in 1837 and the last to have only horses (she refuses to ave any cars in her Mews. Our Hotel is right across the street, the entrance photo was taken from the doorway of our hotel.

For a close up look of any photo double click on the picture.
