Britain's Queen Elizabeth watches Aboriginal dancers perform in Perth, Australia.She was touring an Aboriginal school in the city as part of her 10-day trip to Australia.The Queen also got to "sample" a student's kangaroo stew.But the trip did not go off without a hitch.
At an art gallery, Prince Philip suggests putting the traditional eucalyptus message stick gifted to the Queen on a piece of Aboriginal art depicting a bird's nest on display, not realizing the gift's importance.The comment did not sit well with spectators.The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh are scheduled to open a biennial Commonwealth meeting on Friday.
