Welcome to Erin Mankie's Cabinet of Curiosity's, a production of I Heart Radio and Grimm

and Mild.

Our world is full of the unexplainable.

And if history is an open book, all of these amazing tales are right there on display,

just waiting for us to explore.

Welcome to the Cabinet of Curiosity's.

The British Royal Family, sure does love its ceremonies.

For example, the late Queen Elizabeth birthday has been marked each year by something called

the Trooping of the Color.

Every June, 1,400 soldiers, 400 musicians and 200 horses marched through the streets

from Buckingham Palace to horse guards parade.

The Royal Air Force even makes an appearance as their planes fly overhead.

It's a massive spectacle, much like Garderday.

Garderday honors those who have gained entry into the most noble order of the Garder,

an order of knighthood founded in 1348 by King Edward III.

For the modern day ceremony, the monarch and knights all decked out in velvet robes and

plume hats, marched from Windsor Castle to St. George's Chapel.

A service is held and new knight companions are inducted into the order.

These ceremonies are part of England's long and storied history, dating back hundreds

inner circle.
