Foto: Karaliene Elizabete II svin 90. dzimšanas dienu

Svētki! Lielbritānija svin karalienes Elizabetes II 90. dzimšanas dienu, viņas vecākajam dēlam princim Čārlzam godinot māti īpašā radio pasākumā, un premjerministram Deividam Kameronam vadot parlamentāro sēdi, lai sumināti karalieni.

Bekingemas pils, par godu dzimšanas dienai, publicēja trīs oficiālas bildes, kurās redzama karalienei, tās uzņemot ASV slavenību fotogrāfei Annijai Leibovitzai.

Karaliene Elizabete vienā uzņēmumā ir nofotografēta ar četriem viņas iemīļotajiem čorkiju šķirnes suņiem, citā uzņemt ar viņas vienīgo meitu princesi Anni, savukārt trešajā foto karalieni ieskauj daži no viņas jaunākajiem ģimenes locekļiem.

Karalienes sveicēji šodien dodas ielās, vicinot Lielbritānijas karogus un karalieni pavadot orķestrim.

Turklāt, trešdien karaliene veica divas citas publiskas uzstāšanās – viņa apmeklēja “Royal Mail” biroju Vindzorā, lai atzīmētu tā 500. gadadienu pasta pakalpojumu nodrošināšanai, un tikās ar skolēniem, kad tika atvērta jauna estrāde pie Aleksandra Gārdena upes. Apskati, kā karaliene apvienoja dzimšanas dienu un savus pienākumus!
