The Defining moment of the Royal tour takes place as Kate makes a little girls wish come true


The defining moment of the tour! 













The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have finally arrived  at the Calgary International Airport. Sadly Alberta is the final destination of the Canadian tour before California (What will we do without our daily updates about the Duchess? :)) However, I'm sure they plan to finish it in style. Duchess Kate looks beautiful in a primrose Jenny Packham dress, We waited to see her in something bright and vibrant and here it is! It has a full skirt and short sleeves. She is struggling with it a little due to the wind :) She teamed it with LK Bennett shoes. while William is wearing his traditional navy suit. The locals are somewhat disappinted that they didn't wear the stetsons they were given.....
On arrival a little girl rushed to hug Kate, Six year old Diamond Marshall who wrote a letter from her hospital bed writing about her wish to meet a real princess had her wish come true when she handed the Duchess flowers and she bent down to hug her, a very sweet moment. Despite the conditions and surrounding camera one could tell that Duchess Kate wanted this moment to be special for Diamond and that's really why we love her, It was a touching, heartbreaking scene and the defining moment of the tour for me. The couple will take part in the traditional white hat ceremony at the airport first, then onto a tour of the University of Calgary Ward of the 21st century research and innovation centre. For their last event of the evening the couple will be guests of honour at a reception where the Prime Minister expresses his gratitude for their support.









William and Kate were then taken to the University of Calgary's ward where they were shown how to save the life of 'Stan' A medical test mannequin :) The couple enjoyed a laugh together while performing this task!

Kate plans forty new outfits to dazzle the U.S.



Kate will need forty new outfits for her first tour
On William and Kate's first public engagement as Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Kate looked relaxed and poised. She is settling into both married life and royal duties with ease. However, William is determined they remain as 'normal' as possible insisting they spend just twenty minutes with the Obamas without television cameras. He also decided they should not attend the state banquet. We would all have loved to see them there, especially for the purpose of seeing what Kate would have worn at her first state dinner. 
With preparation underway for the Royal visits to Canada and the U.S. Kate's wardrobe is taking priority. She wants to be conservative enough for Canada yet glamorous enough for California. Wardrobe worries are best tackled at Clarence house where her mother and sister Pippa help her choose the most appropriate clothing. For the Duchess there is more to consider than simply liking the outfit. She will want to present the best of British fashion while giving a nod to local Canadian and American designers. It is estimated she will need forty outfits not allowing for changeable weather. The palace are reported concerned that Kate does not want a lady in waiting, A source said 'On tour you cannot iron all your own clothes, don't have time to unpack, can't hold all the flowers you are handed and, most importantly, need someone to start chatting in a crowded room'. I think it would be ideal if Kate could take Pippa myself, Unfortunately she has just started a new job. A friend of the couple's said Kate's reticence to hire staff has logic to it 'The more you embrace the trappings of royalty, the more people expect from you and you can't reverse it'. Kate is also brushing up on her French as she knows a large proportion of the Canadian population speak it fluently. The first royal tour for the new couple is looking like it's going to be a memorable one!

William and Kate to receive welcome from the stars in California

It was confirmed on May 5th that Prince William and his wife Kate will be visiting California after their tour of Canada. The date is set for July 8-10th. It will make a nice weekend visit for the couple. Kate has never been to the United States before. There has been intense interest in their plans for this visit, especially from the stars who are eager to have them as guests. William is a close friend of David Beckham. They forged a strong friendship when they worked together on England's failed 2018 World Cup bid. A source said, 'They are always texting each other. People haven't realised quite how close they are. David may ask William to be a godparent, you never know'. It is thought the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will be among the first to meet the Beckham's fourth child due this summer.
The couple will also be greeted by former California governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Despite his marital separation being highly publicized, he is eager to show the couple a good time. They are expected to attend a Hollywood party. As president of BAFTA, William is keen to promote the British film industry. A provisional itinerary for their trip includes a tour of giant redwood trees in Yosemite National Park, the Big Sur coast and a poverty programme. This week, President Obama told Prince Charles he had been mesmerised by the royal wedding.
The citizens of California will be excited to see the couple wherever they choose to go. Caroline Beteta, president of  the California Travel and Tourism Commission said, 'No matter where they venture in California, the royal visit will create a global postcard for the golden state'. Princess Diana proved a major hit in the U.S. when she visited in the 1980s. The young royals will be hoping for the same welcome. During Queen Elizabeth II's trip in 1983, she visited Los Angeles, Palm springs, San Francisco and San Diego. During an earlier visit, she watched movies being made at Universal studios.
