Good information folks. I thanks you for drawing a more accurate picture of the Queen for me, and others.
Am I correct by saying the one and only time Victoria saw Alix & Nicky post-marriage was during their visit (1896?) a few months after baby Olga was born? I've read some things about that visit and her private conversions with Alix but can't remember what exactly at the moment. Does anyone have a little more information that? Aside from being excited to see her great-granddaughter what was heard and what sort of questions did she ask Alix? The normal "how is it coming along?" stuff or anything more penatrating?
