this photo is from prince charles’ investiture as the prince of wales on july 1, 1969. fun fact: charles’ coronet was designed specially for him and was not nearly as valuable or fancy as it looks. making it entirely out of real gold and other such materials would have resulted in a coronet that was very heavy and difficult to wear, so in actuality, the little gold ball on the top was plastic and painted gold.

I live on the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Queensland!! I love beauty in all its forms...warm Winter sunshine on my verandah in the afternoon, the smell of freshly baked bread, the long, long hug of a treasured friend, the softness of a baby's skin, a smile that lights up the face, thunderstorms, a carpet of petals beneath a tree, frosty mornings, a blanket of snow transforming the world, views from the tops of mountains, the excitement of beginning a long journey to a new place....
