Royally Curious Day 9: The Final Day of the Tour

Flipped through my photos from Calgary on the final day of Will and Kate’s Royal Tour of Canada and this stood out as one of my favourites. Just a lovely couple.

Adjective: Of, resembling, or fit for a monarch, esp. in being magnificent or dignified.

Will and Kate have left the building…

It was Kate vs the gusting wind once again during the official departure ceremony at Calgary Rotary Challenger Park. I think she more than held her own. (Kate Middleton pictured here with the Governor General of Canada and his wife.)

Will and Kate at the official departure ceremony, which took place at Calgary Rotary Challenger Park. Was Kate paying tribute to Canada with her red-on-red outfit today?

The Royal Tour of Canada is over and we’re back home in beautiful Vancouver, BC. But we’re not quite done yet - there are still a few stories left to tell… Stay tuned!

Early this morning, Will and Kate hit the big red button to launch the ticker tape spectacle that traditionally kicks-off the Calgary Stampede Parade!

Young Harry had a one-word greeting for Will and Kate at Rotary Challenger Park, their last stop in Calgary before departing Canada.

Hungry anyone? The best meal (amongst a few) during the tour. Daily Rotisserie. Spit-Roasted and Smoked, accompanied by arugula salad, homemade Parmesan fries and bag of warm cookies. (Taken with instagram)

Kate met, hugged and chatted with 6-year-old Diamond Marshall yesterday at the Calgary Airport. Diamond was diagnosed with abdominal cancer earlier this year and is now awaiting surgery. She wrote a letter to the Children’s Wish Foundation of Canada and asked if she could meet a real princess. It was truly heart warming to see her wish come true…

It’s not just the fans and Royal watchers who have to wait under the sun for extended periods of time… Media too!

Man in Motion Rick Hansen served as marshall for the Calgary Stampede parade…
