Her influence on her parents "diplomatically" makes me wonder if she wouldn't be successful in politics or something, had she lived.
I think she was lndeed learning how to apply her royal position to situations ...like with her committee etc. That is a type of politics for sure!
I always thought it was interesting how she was dressed differently from her two shown sisters...
In the photo, she and Alexandra are embroidering still. The other girls look tired, as in, post hike. What they are sitting there waiting for I don't know . Perhaps for their father, so they can all go into tea?
and they found that dog as a stray?? Yay, more stories!! 
That's what I read .There are other photos of Olga with her father and officers playing with the dog earlier the same day.
