Day 7: Benedict Cumberbatch and a few other semi-important things

 
So like I told you we started our morning with buying Hamlet tickets, then we headed over to Buckingham palace once again to see the changing of the guard. Here are some short videos so that you can see part of the process!








Here we are at St. James park with Buckingham Palace in the background.
Then after lunch, which I did not take a picture of, I headed over to the Royal Albert Concert hall. It was huge and gorgeous. It had so much history. One of the coolest parts was the royal box owned by the Queen, passed from Queen Victoria down to Queen Elizabeth. She also has a private entrance and sitting room for her personal use.


Then right behind the hall is Hyde park. There is a huge monument to Prince Albert and then I just included a picture of part of the lovely little park.


Then I came home, packed a little, and got ready to go see Hamlet. It was truly amazing what they had done. It was definitely worth the money it would have originally cost but it was especially worth the sacrifice of sleep. I mean it was truly amazing. We decided to wait afterward to get some autographs. I got one from Ciaran Hinds. He was the wicked King/uncle. Then Alyssa got a little video of when Benedict Cumberbatch came out. Excuse a little foul language of one of the girls next to us, it was just really exciting. Alyssa was on of the few to get his autograph and the whole experience made it totally worth it!
