On 3rd June 2012 to celebrate Queen Elisabeth II 60 year reign, the Diamond Jubilee Flotilla Pageant with 1000 vessels sailed along the River Thames. Over a million people gathered to watch the Spirit of Chartwell and cheer the royal barge. Chartwell House was home of Winston Churchill - a thoughtful name of a barge.
The Queen is seen here with her family with highlights of the day.
Elizabeth II was just 25 at her Coronation to become Queen Elisabeth II. These videos portray her early years as a young Princess prior to being married and since her Coronation.

A lot has happened during the lifetime and reign of Queen Elisabeth. Her children and grandchildren have grown up to know a very privileged life to learn from and be enriched in their experience. In a time where humanity is to progress, it is time for people to be empowered and so time will tell, if this is to be!
Peace, love and best wishes
