So much for the Queen's wish for a low-key birthday.

The group photo is precious. I see William and Camilla are sharing some kind of private joke while Zara is pulling Harry's arm about something. Its good to see them getting along great and having a good time at Granny's birthday.

Two birthdays -- one is the monarch's actual birthday. The other is June 17. [Interesting that June 18 is the anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo.] The weather in England in June is blissful, much better for public & outdoor celebrations & the Trooping of the Color. In the later 19th-century and up until the independence of India, it was called Empire Day & there were celebrations all over the Empire, involving the populace at all levels, starting with athletic events for school children.

Remember when Diana went public and revealed those "insider" stories about how cold-hearted and remote the queen was? I wonder what she must feel these days about all these people congratulating and admiring her, when ten years ago she was viewed so critically.

The Countess of Wessex looked great, that red dress is fantastic, and very elegant with that brooch looking thing on the strap(s?)! Princess Michael also looked very elegant, the two row pearl necklace was lovely!

I hope the Queen will have a long and happy life, long may she reign!
