State Visit

Next on the Imperial Progress was a state visit to the charming little town of Prince Rupert, British Columbia.
The local inhabitants thronged the port area to catch the arrival of the Imperial Barge.
Here you can see the Royal Mountie Honor Guard which greeted Us upon Our arrival.
The local marine rescue unit put on a demonstration for Us.
And We were made an honorary fire chief for the day. How quaint!
Then it was off to Government House where the personal representative of the Queen was waiting to receive Us. She's keen to put all that unpleasantness over Scotland behind us.
