But we’re going to go all the way back and look at the queen’s Silver Jubilee.
She spent the actual February anniversary of her accession with her family at Windsor.
She even hopped over to Canada (viaCBC).
She didn’t want the celebration to solely be about her life and reign.
This declaration was another attempt by the queen to show unity for her people.
It showed her sense of humor with the salad joke while showing that she’s still committed to them.
This trip down the river was meant to symbolize Elizabeth I’s barge trips.
In a way, this too showed solidarity and unification.
It’s about paying attention to history.
These two places would forever honor this day and celebration, just as a new trust would.
