Marché aux Fleurs Reine Elizabeth II.

On D-Day, June 6, 1942, King George VI was England’s king and his eldest daughter, Princess Elizabeth, had just turned 18 in April. During D-Day celebrations in Paris last week, Queen Elizabeth, now 88, visited the 206-year-old Flower Market on Ile de la Cité, the island in the Seine recognized as the historical center of Paris.
