Queen Elizabeth’s coffin arrived at Buckingham Palace Tuesday night, and on Wednesday it will be taken from there to the Houses of Parliament to lie in state for four days at Westminster Hall before Monday’s funeral at Westminster Abbey. To prepare for the procession from the palace, British soldiers held a rehearsal in the wee hours of Tuesday in which they pretended to weep while throwing flowers and flags at the horses that will be pulling the coffin, the Telegraph reports.
