Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall join a street party in London.

Meanwhile in Chelsea, 1000 boats prepare to sail down the Thames as part of a massive flotilla.

(SOUNDBITE) (English) JACK CLARK, SAYING:

We live just around the corner so for him, it's brilliant to be able to see something like this at such a young age. Because he might not see it again for a long long time."

Some spectators remembered the Queen's coronation.

(SOUNDBITE) (English) MOSES TCHAPARIAN, SAYING:

"So here I am now watching the Queen after 60 years"

(SOUNDBITE) (English) LINDA EVANS, SAYING:

"It's wonderful, everybody has come so far to be here. It looks really ordered as well, they are getting round quite quickly, getting everything ordered. It's lovely."

Millions are expected to line the banks of the Thames for the pageant.
