Using Irfan View, a simple and free editing program, I have increased the saturation a little, reduced the blue component (by 44), then I have reduced the gamma correction (glare) slightly, and sharpened the image.
As you can see,the bluish haze is gone and some of the original colour restored.
Hope you like it.

All I have done is select the background in Photoshop and applied a 5.5 gausian blur. Then using USM, sharpened the image 50%. Of course the result would look better on the original image, but hopefully it will give you a bit of an idea on how you could use simple improvements to produce an even nicer image than what the camera captured.
cheers, Chris
