And so she became a British citizen!!

The party is on at Buckingham Palace! The reason? A big fat welcome to Dr. Alice - who by the way, happens to be our older daughter, as a citizen to the kingdom! LOL... I know it was not quite like that, but that is how a mother sees it, ha ha ha.

How cool the way life gears the various situations it presents to us..., back in 2002, when it was time for her to choose where to go for college, she didn't choose to go to the UK because of my side of her roots, but eventually ended up enjoying being there and as for my parents, they were excited to see her wondering around the same grounds our ancestors once did. Back a few generations ago, an adventurous member of the House of Windsor went to Brazil, fell in love, had kids, who had more kids eventually getting to myself and a generation later, to Alice, making us cousins of her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth!!

On Wednesday, voila, she became a British citizen!
The gentleman on the left is the mayor of Bristol, the city where she lives and the gentleman on the right is the representative of the Queen.

God bless you Darling, enjoy your bi-nationality and have loads of fun with the new doors that have opened to you!
