Royal Wedding

I watched the royal wedding ceremony on TV this Friday. That was really interesting for me to see thousands of people had gone there to watch it. We ,in Iran, could have this kind of celebrations too,but time has changed. Although the ceremony was rather boring and tiredsome,I couldn't watch the church part with those hymns and  preaches ;) , the whole atmosphere was happy and cheerful.After all those time waiting for the couple to come to the balcony, I really think that the kiss could have lasted loner,lol ;) It must have been a pleasant experience for the audience ,especially to english.
