Olympic Torch Relay: July 27th, 2012

On the 70th and final day of the Olympic torch relay the torch arrived on our doorstep at Hampton Court Palace to board the Queens Jubilee barge Gloriana and travel downstream to the opening of the Olympic games at the Olympic stadium in Stratford East London.


Over a thousand people turned out to see the spectacle (and the queens barge is in the top right!) you couldn't get over Hampton Court Bridge let alone get close enough for a decent view! Regardless, the atmosphere and the excitement was palpable, a truly historical moment in time!
