Shaking hands with smiling spectators, he was met with cheers of “hip, hip, hooray!” and “God save the King!” along the grand avenue leading to the palace, which will be a central part of a procession route on Saturday. One military veteran saluted Charles while others told the King where they had come from: the Netherlands, Poland, the Gambia and Pakistan were among the variety of nationalities represented in the crowd.
“I remember, when I was in here for my wedding, I could hear you all singing outside,” William told a group of women draped in Britain’s Union Jack camping out along the Mall. “So, I’m sure you’ll all keep each other going tonight.”
