Tuesday we showed you some photos of the Queen’s Mews that house the royal cars, carriages, and horses. \u00a0Here are a few more shots that I took when visiting Buckingham Palace last September.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a photo of the ceiling in a huge room that holds a special 14 karat gold-trimmed carriage. \u00a0This carriage is only used by the new monarchs during coronations to take them to and from Westminster Abbey.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h3>\n

Jordan didn’t like this photo, but I decided to show you anyway. \u00a0She thinks the horse’s eyes look eerie. \u00a0 They only had one live token horse in the stables that day, and this guy was it.<\/h3>\n

The photo below shows the coronation carriage. \u00a0That means it has been sitting in this huge room since the 1950’s. \u00a0It has been in existence since the 1500’s which means it is older than our country. \u00a0A large team of horse with riders on their backs pull the carriage because the solid gold trim makes it weigh tons.<\/h3>\n

When you look at the photo below, you can see a wall in the background where pictures are hanging. \u00a0In order to get this large carriage out of the building, they have to remove that wall. \u00a0Yep! \u00a0Can you imagine? \u00a0But it’s not like they need to do it that often. \u00a0Every sixty years or so wouldn’t be too bad.<\/h3>\n

We, here at The 2 Seasons, plan to watch every minute of the royal wedding, except we’ll be in two separate cities. \u00a0What about you? \u00a0Are you getting up early to watch the festivities?<\/h3>\n
