Third day of visit

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth visited the Irish National Stud today on the
third day of her visit to Ireland.
This was a more relaxed day when she met with Jockeys, viewed training equipment
in action, unveiled a statue, and later in the evening watched the Riverdance dancers
perform. She received a bouquet of flowers on the stage, and a very warm ovation.
Members of the public interviewed sounded positive about the visit, including positive
affirmations from some unlikely sources.
She expressed sympathy during the trip for victims of the conflicts that have raged,
and although no direct apology was expressed, it is said she has come as close as
possible to making one.
