On their second day in Wales, The Prince and Princess of Wales visited the Aberfan Memorial Garden to pay their respects to those who lost their lives during the Aberfan disaster. The Aberfan Memorial Garden sits on the site of the Pantglas school which was tragically destroyed in a coal-tip landslide on 21st October 1966. The incident led to the loss of 144 lives, including 116 children.

Such a tragic event. It's good that they went to commemorate it.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed !!
DeletePour cette visite commémorative, le couple princier a su se vêtir comme il se doit ; magnifique le bouquet de roses offert à Kate. J'adore les deux dernières photos où nous voyons que le sac à mains de Kate intéresse l'enfant dans les bras de sa maman ; trop mignon ! Moi, ce sont les nouvelles boucles d'oreilles diamants sur or blanc qui sont à mon goût !
ReplyDeleteThe baby with the handbag - too cute!
ReplyDeleteCatherine is appropriately dressed.
Both William and Catherine were in appropriate attire for attending this event to remember those who lost their lives in such a tragic event.
ReplyDeleteI have researched and read many articles about this tragedy. A terrible event that to this day, brings back memories of sadness. I am so glad the Royal couple visited.
ReplyDeleteAppropriate outfit for this visit. It was such an unbelievably tragic event
ReplyDeleteSmart dress down fashion. Correct for the occason.
DeleteNot the right moment to talk about my dreams and a Mulberry bag so I'll leave it for another occasion.
Catherine is beautifully attired for visiting the Aberfan Memorial--I am so glad they made this stop. As the Prince and Princess of Wales this was probably such a meaningful visit to the people there. The baby and the purse is adorable!

It was the right occasion for wearing something so subdued. Even Catherine's hair looks, for once, like that of a mere mortal.
ReplyDeleteSono d’accordo con tutti i commenti 🌹

The "Royals" were very late attending at the time, now very early considering it happened in October. It would never have been allowed to happen in England even then. Still, thank you for calling by. Diolcj.
ReplyDeleteNo need for quotation marks around Royals.
DeleteThey weren't "very" late - and they have been to Aberfan on several different dates over the years. No-one has claimed it's an anniversary visit.
How do you know what would have happened? The Queen didn't wish to get in the way of the rescue work - why would that have been any different in England?
The word is Diolch.
I like the coat. I also can tolerate the dress. css
