Had an overnight layover in London and watched the wedding from our hotel. Decided we needed to be there so got on the underground next to the hotel and within 10 minutes found ourselves in a giant mob.

Not knowing where we were going we just sort of went with the flow and the next thing you know, we were at the front gates of Buckingham at just the right time.Snapped some photos so you can see what it was actually like for the crowds down there.
