Video of Victoria today:
Victoria vinkade glatt / Vestmanlands Läns Tidning
Victoria seemed to be in a very good mood and she waved cheerfully to the people. Pauline Marshall from Scotland was happy to actually see Victoria. She said: She looks much better when you see her alive.

Victoria gave name to a mine shaft

Photo gallery/ Vestmanlands Läns Tidning

About 500 people were summoned to see a glimpse of crown princess Victoria at the Sala silver mine. And Victoria was honoured - a mine shaft was christened with her name.
The name of the shaft has been Namnlösen - Nameless. Also queen Ulrika Eleonora and queen Kristina have given their name to a mine shaft.

Victoria in Sala Silver mine and the inauguration of a concert hall named after her, Victoriasalen or the Victoria hall. She wears a miner's helmet and is accompanied by people dressed in oldtime clothes 155 meters under the ground.

Crown Princess Victoria revealed that she has never flipped a coin in her life, when she was asked to do so during the inauguration of a new concert hall, named after her, in the old silver mine, 155 meters under ground, in Sala. Niklas Ulfvebrandt dressed in 18th centure outfit, explained to her how to do and she exclaimed with great satisfaction that it was "daddy upwards" when it landed heads up, since the king's portrait is on one side of Swedish coins. When a lady stepped up, the crown princess jokingly shouted "watch out you're stepping on my dad!". General laughter.
