Her Majesty the Queen with Premier Anna Bligh, originally uploaded by Aimees001.
Had a fine view of the Queen with Premier Anna Bligh at Southbank, Brisbane yesterday. I waited for hours, but fewer than I anticipated, and got a front-fence spot overlooking the Rainforest Walk. Spent the time sipping water, finding shade and chatting to the other ladies there to see ‘Her Madge’. Poor lady must have been so hot in her lovely outfit, as it was a gloriously sunny day! Throngs of people were there of course. How *did* I end up with such a great view? Fluke! Found a patch of shade to stand in, and the ladies said she was walking right by there. Win! So now I can say I have seen the Queen, which is more than I managed while in London. And may I say: Southbank, how lovely you were looking yesterday? Gosh what a beautiful place to spend a day! Below are some sketches I did of various things waiting for the Queen:
