Red with gold fringe

I love the way she stands on a portable, double-level, red with gold fringe dais to watch the little parade go by.

Out in the rain - she's a trooper!

Prince Philip attend the Mass in Vatican today:

I watched the whole Mass and I couldn't see him!!!

The man on the first row is King Albert, isn't he?
Well, they showed all these people at least five or six times. And each time I looked at them very carefully. And I looked especially at the second row - he mast be there, I thought - I looked behind that bishop all the times! I'm sure, because he was very visible, and the king next to him.
And I couldn't see Philip when he arrived, because the broadcast bagan just before the arrival of King Juan Carlos and the others were already in place.
But he was there! I am blind.
