Y is for YouTube


YouTube link The Royal Wedding (1923)

Y is for YouTube.

Why did I choose YouTube for my Y word. Because I've used them for almost every post. Because this technology is fun and now we can create Book Trailers. So I went over and searched and what do you know? I found another royal wedding on this royal wedding day. This is William's great grandparents who thought they would get to live a relatively quiet life. But George ended up being King during WWII.

No sound on this one. Tomorrow is the last day of the challenge. I hope you enjoy my Y pick.

YouTube is so much a part of what we do that it's almost hard to remember what life was like before we had it. lol

Notes Along the Way with Mary Montague Sikes said...

That's an interesting piece of history. It's so easy to forget he wasn't supposed to become the king!

Thanks. YouTube is big!!!

Youtube is great! I still need to check out the footage of today's wedding.

Hi Susan, me too. I watched Charles and Diana but this one was way too early.

That's a great "Y" word. I can't believe we can see a 1923 wedding on YouTube. Technology never ceases to amaze.

Now that's a real royal wedding. I'd much rather watch this than the "other affair." And so I did. Thanks Nancy, for the classy and classic Y post.

You Tube is a great vehicle for writer's so why not post about it!

Just came for Z is for Zebra and to read your previous posts I'd missed but it must have been a mis-publish or something.

It was great to see the earlier Royal Wedding!
