Ten Years Later: UK Remembers Diana, the Original Super World Traveler

August 31, 2007 at 8:45 AM | by | Comments (0)


This week residents of New Orleans marked the Second Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. But there's another memorial happening today on the other side of the pond: The tenth anniversary of the death of Princess Diana. She was just 36.

The People's Princess was known for her humanitarian efforts, and she traveled more extensively than any royalty we can remember. Diana brought attention to landmines that were left buried and unmarked after civil war, she raised awareness of famine and helped lift the stigma of AIDS. She was the original super world traveler, and we're guessing, where Angelina Jolie got the idea in the fist place.
