Buckingham Palace
Tuesday, 24th January 2006 by Alex Turnbull
This is Buckingham Palace in London, England, it's the Queen's official English residence and she must be in as the flag is flying. It was originally built in 1703 for the Duke of Buckingham as a large townhouse, and in 1762 it was taken over by King George III, and has been a private residence for the Monarchy ever since. More info at Wikipedia.
There's tons of people crowded at the palace gates and you can even the guards marching in formation.

There is actually always flying at Buckingham Palace. When the Queen is resident he own Royal standard is used. When she’s elsewhere, a Union Jack is flown.
If you look in Betty’s backyard you can see they are either setting up or taking down some marquees. They are probably for one of her famous all night raves when Phil can be usually found on the bouncy castle with his face painted like a tiger.
If you zoom out, just a bit, and look to the right and see a small blue dot….zoom in and I believe that is the tent top of a merry-go-round!
Not sure, but it looks like it might be in a park.
That is St James’s Park Mr Velvet.
