A Royal Wedding in London!

As you all know, on Friday 29th April 2011 we bore witness to a ROYAL WEEDING in United Kingdom. It was a beautiful ceremony in a perfect environment.

I would have loved to be in Buckingham Palace waving a Union Jack flag or

inside the Abbey with a new hat! 

Here it is the invitation for the wedding with our names on it:

The wedding of Prince William of Wales and Catherine “Kate” Middleton took place at Westminster Abbey. William, who is second in the line of succession to Queen Elizabeth II, first met Middleton in 2001, while he and Catherine were studying at the University of St Andrews, in Scotland. Don't you think they look very happy?

Catherine in her wedding dress and wearing the

traditional veil after having hidden it from the world.

And now it's your turn, What do you think?

In a break with royal tradition, the groom is to have a best man -his brother, Prince Harry- rather than a supporter, while the bride has chosen her sister, Pippa, as maid of honour. The couple had four bridesmaids and two page boys. After the religious ceremony, William and Catherine left Westminster Abbey as a married couple and travelled along the wedding procession route to Buckingham Palace as shown in the map.  

Now, Prince William and Catherine are Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

This is the famous family photo in the balcony at Buckingham Palace. How odd! ;)

And they lived happily ever after... TO BE CONTINUED!

What is a FLASHMOB?

Would you like to participate in a flashmob?

Definition: a flashmob is a group of people who suddenly join together in a public place, perform an unusual and sometimes funny dance for a brief time and then disperse, often for the purposes of entertainment or advertisement. 

This is an example which took place in Liverpool 

St. Underground Station in London.

Can you find some more examples? Do you like them? Why or Why not?

Don't be shy and post a comment!
