The Queen and Prince Phillip met the All Blacks at a moving ceremony in London yesterday outside Tourism New Zealand's inflatable Rugby Ball Venue. The Ball was opened earlier yesterday by Prime Minister John Key and London Mayor Boris Johnson.
The Queen and Prince Phillip were greeted by Prime Minister John Key and welcomed by a Maori Kaikaranga before entering the rugby ball venue situated outside London’s Tower Bridge.
Inside the venue they were treated to a state of the art audio visual show of New Zealand. Using eight cameras it gives the viewer a feeling of being inside a rugby ball which is kicked through the air from London to New Zealand where it bounces around the country showing the many features of New Zealand.
The Ball will be open to the public for the next five days and will host the IRB's Rugby World Cup 2011 Pool Draw annoucement on 1 December.
