She takes public transportation just like us! Queen Elizabeth was all bundled up upon her arrival to Norfolk, England, on Dec. 20, after traveling by train from London’s King’s Cross Station. The Queen’s private Sandringham Estate is only a 30-minute drive from King’s Lynn, so she made the best of her quick trip. Scroll through the gallery to see pics and get details!

So Relatable

Happy Holidays

To kick off her Christmas break, the monarch leaves Buckingham Palace in December to spend most of the winter at her country home with her husband, Prince Philip, and their family. Several of the royals will be gathering for the festivities in 2018, including Prince Harry and pregnant Meghan Markle.

Spreading Cheer!

Unfortunately, Meghan’s mother Doria Ragland won’t be attending this time. As expected, the royals will be keeping tradition alive. “On Christmas Eve, the family lays out their presents on trestle tables and will exchange their gifts at teatime,” according to the official website. So fancy!
