In London (United Kingdom), Sunday June 5, the royal family made a last appearance on the balcony of Buckingham Palace. Queen Elizabeth II, whose platinum jubilee is being celebrated, was present to greet the crowd. A way to thank the millions of Britons who paid tribute to him for his 70 years of reign. In a street in the city center, a gigantic neighborhood party was held to honor the sovereign. 400 guests gathered around this large table after several months of preparation. “It’s an opportunity to get to know new people”says a man at the table.

In addition to the meal, the guests were able to admire a parade of costumed dogs. A competition for the best decorated house was also held. A party where British humor is king. The day before, it was Elizabeth II herself who participated in an offbeat short film with Paddington, the favorite bear of the British for generations. The video was released before the opening of an event concert. A nod to all the love that has been communicated to him in recent days and throughout his reign.
