Spectacle

Posted 22 August

Yesterday we took the tour of the state rooms at Buckingham Palace. We've seen lots of spectacular rooms in other palaces and homes in various parts of Europe, but these are really something. Unfortunately, no photos may be taken inside the palace. We also toured the Palace Mews with their stables. The Mews staff takes care of all the horses and the various ceremonial carriages, as well as the royal automobiles. We were permitted to take photos in the Mews and you can see them at http://chuck.smugmug.com/gallery/199289.
