Changing of the Guard This was not fun. We have no idea why everyone wants to do it. In fact, because everyone else wants to do it is most of the reason why it's not fun. You have to arrive WAY in advance to be able to get a decent view. We were there 45 minutes ahead of time and were not able to get a decent spot. Then, you get to stand, and stand. And stand. The whole things moves at a snails pace and given that you probably didn't get a good spot, you can't see most of it anyway. For the first 10 minutes of it I felt like we needed to stay until the end just so we could say we saw it. That ended about 5 minutes later. Some nice people let us get up to the fence so we could take some pictures that wouldn't have metal bars in them, and once we got the proof we were there, we bolted! |
