Queen Silvia of Sweden is in New York City to carry out engagements on behalf of the Mentor Foundation. The Queen is the president of the Mentor Foundation, which "works in the field of global education and the prevention of substance abuse among children and young people. Queen Noor of Jordan, the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Luxembourg and the Prince of the Asturias are among the International Royal Trustees.
Tonight, Queen Silvia attended The Royal Gala at the Waldorf=Astoria Hotel in New York City. The evening began at 7:00 and was expected to end at 10:30 with cocktails, dinner and a live auction.
The Waldorf=Astoria is the perfect place to hold such an event. One presumes that the Queen is staying in one of the suites in the Towers.
I stayed at the Waldorf in October .. lovely, absolutely lovely, and will be going back in late February for a weekend in New York - at the Waldorf=Astoria.
