Are you planning to travel to Victoria Sunday to see Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip during the golden jubilee festivities in the provincial capital?
Among the events is a procession from the Empress Hotel and appearance at the historical Parliament Buildings on Belleville Street at 2:30 p.m., preceded by a pre-show of the official welcoming ceremony starting at 1:30 p.m.
The PDN will be there, and we’d like to cover the impressions of North Olympic Peninsula residents who trek across the pond — OK, the Strait of Juan de Fuca — to see the royals.
Please contact Local News Editor Roger Harnack at 360-417-3521 or roger.harnack@peninsuladailynews.com, especially if you’re going as part of a group from the Peninsula.
For more information about the visit, log onto the official Web site at www.canadianheritage.gc.ca or the CanWest Web site at www.canada.com/national/features/royalvisit.
