With all the rules tightening up at the US border, one wonders does the Queen need a passport to enter the US? She certainly does not need one to enter Canada. Oh well she probably already has one. "God Save the Queen."

And will she have to take off her shoes when she goes through the metal detectors at the airport?

Sorry but I really can't resist here.........

Will she finally have to put down that damn purse and feed it through the X-ray machine -- so the world can see what she keeps in there that is so important???

(the Queen carries a purse everywhere - even pictured in her palace carrying the dumb thing --- and she can't be carrying spare change or make-up because that's what her lady-in-waiting is supposed to do. So end the mystery and let's see!!!)

Maybe she carries her own 'red phone' (unlike the US president who has someone else to do that).

Supposedly, there's a bottle or two of selzer water in that thing. Corgis do have accidents from time to time.

We always watch the Derby as we are horse racing fans, but this Royalty fan will be looking even more forward to Derby Day this year.

Ravel and Great Hunter are off the Derby trail. Of course both were in my Road to the Roses contest stable.

BTW, I found a PETA message board and you should read their posts about horse racing if you want a laugh. Did you know they "are forced to run miles and, like miles?" One poster said she is going to the race to yell at people. She sounded like a Peta terrorist in her post.
