says hello

The Queen had a relaxed smile for everyone during a presentation ceremony at Suva's town hall. Both she and the Duke of Edinburgh chatted with so many of the coun cillors that the 10 minutes scheduled for the town hall visit were spun out to 18 minutes. At left of the Queen is the Mayor of Suva, Cr. L. G. Usher Below, the Royal family visit a family flat in the Raiwaqa Housing Estate in Suva. The family are kneeling in the traditional Fijian method of respect.—Photos by Nitin Lai and Stan Ritova.
