Today, February 6, 2022, marks the 70th anniversary of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Ascending to the UK throne on February 6, 1952, upon the death of her father King George VI, she has sat there longer than any prior English monarch and is second only to Louis XIV of France for longest reign in world history. She will surpass even him if she reigns thru May 2024. The Queen is 95 years old and still going strong! In recognition of the anniversary we paid a visit today to Buckingham Palace and environs.
