My Visit with the Queen
May/08/2007 22:12
The Queen of England visited Goddard Space Flight Center
today. There was a welcoming ceremony for
which 200 people were picked by lottery to
attend. My friend Saima and my jazzercize
teacher Nadine got in. I was not so lucky. I
only got to see her from about a block away
as she walked from building 3 where she
talked to the astronauts on the Space
Station to Building 8 where the ceremony
took place.
The queen walked from the right side of the picture (above left) to a building off camera on the left. Luckily she was wearing bright yellow/green otherwise I may not have known which one was her. Note the Secret Service guy on the roof in the movie below.
[will add movie later]
Seeing the Queen at work was not nearly as cool as seeing and talking to Shah Rukh Khan at work but it's all good.
