Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee

So this year is the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. She has been queen for 60 years! England is very proud of her. Today, she came to Richmond for the Jubilee and to hang out with me. It rained and hailed, there was mud and cold but it was totally worth it!

 I saw these guys on my run through Richmond Park (which is where they held the Jubilee). Don't let them fool you. They are nothing like Bambi. They will hunt you down and chase after you!


 Just as I entered the park these guys were standing around. I THOUGHT they were waiting for the Queen to drive by. Turns out they were waiting for a shuttle. Lazy Brit's can't even walk 4 football (American) fields length to get to the Queens Jubilee.


 Look at that horses tongue!!!!!
He slobbered on this kid a little. 
 Everybody out waiting for the Queen to drive by.
 This kids face is painted like the Union Jack. Awesome.
 That's her! That's her car!
 There she is again!!!
 Her car is leading!!!
 I swear I saw Prince William in the last car and I am positive he waved to me!
 The Royal Ballet performed a dance from Swan Lake for her Royal Majesty.
 Check out the look on that baby's face!
 I watched everything on this guy's camcorder.


 Wait for it...
 Wait for it...

 I see her! She's in blue and her umbrella is clear!
 There she is! There she is!
 Hey Queenie! OVER HERE!
 OMG!
 OMG! OMG! OMG!
 They bulked up on security.

The Queen drove past me! She is in the first car. Apparently she rolls a Range Rover.

On my walk home, she drove past me AGAIN! I think she was following me.
