MATT RADIO : EYE ON LONDON


Matt, Anna, Melissa, and Pam ride high in the London Eye

after Matt catches some shots of the changing of the guard.


The view of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament
from the London Eye astonished the MATT RADIO crew.

Whitehall

Horse Guards at Whitehall

These columns of mounted guards perform this “face off” ritual every day.

A daily changing of the
guard ceremony takes these horses from Hyde Park...

...back here to Whitehall.

A Turkish cannon made in 1524
sits at Whitehall.

The Royal Marching Band
accompanies the daily
changing of the guard...

marching through the Mall...

...into the gates of
Buckingham Palace.

Melissa & Pam pose at the
Palace of Westminster...

...also known as the
Houses of Parliament.

You can take awesome photos

of the capsules.







Could you ever possibly get enough of this view?
