VICTORIA DAY


A boater cruises past Victoria Rock, a natural rock formation that resembles the profile of Queen Victoria, whose birthday we celebrate today. She reigned for 64 years, the longest of any British monarch, and also spent the last 40 years of her life dressed in black and in perpetual mourning after the death of her husband, Prince Albert.
