Horse Guards Parade

 
 

After the concert, we head down Whitehall in search of lunch.  We stop by the Horse Guards Parade, where the royal horses are kept and displayed, and are featured in daily morning Changing of the Queen's Life Guard.  This will also be the site of the Olympic Dressage and Beach Volleyball competitions.  We pass Downing Street, home of the Prime Minister and other governmental officials, not to mention several thousand protesters.
