Princess Anne's visit to Australia in October is a private trip to visit charities and organisations with which she is involved.

 

[muriel]

Great idea. Perhaps Charles and Camilla can visit Aus / NZ in 2015 or 2016

I don´t really follow the Princess, but I am surprised that there haven't been any posts about her project in Ethiopia.

The Princess Royal has been President of @savechildrenuk since 1970 - the first charity HRH became associated with #RoyalVisit #Ethiopia

Canad has really gotten a huge number of royal visits in the last few years, 2 with C and C, 1 with W and K, 1 with E and S, and now Anne.

Actually one or other member of the royal family visits Canada on a routine basis as representatives of the Canadian royal family. Many of these visits are rather low profile (wiki has a list). Princess Anne last visited Canada just last year as colonel-in-chief of her regiment in Barrie, Ontario.

As a Belgian, I have to say I really like The Princess Royal's Belgian Embassy visit. She looks quite royal in that picture by the way. I dislike the dress, but it fits her very well. AAA+

At 1:56 you will see that Princess Anne is still in good shape.

Would love to see Princess Anne but was advised it would be difficult to get close as it is not an official visit.

Princess Anne on the island where they think her father Prince Philip is a god | Royal | News | Daily Express

PRINCESS Anne yesterday returned to the tiny South Pacific island where her father Prince Philip is worshipped as a god.

Villagers in a remote part of Vanuatu have been convinced since the Royals visited in 1974 that the Duke of Edinburgh is descended from their spirit ancestors.

Anne, 64, was also on the tour aboard the Royal Yacht Britannia 40 years ago when the Katom people around Yaohnanen village on the southern island of Tanna started worshipping the Duke.

They believe he is the son of a mountain spirit who, according to legend, travelled over the seas to a distant land where he married a powerful lady but vowed to one day return to them.

 

[Marty91charmed]

Oh gosh... a god????

That's a charming article. Buried in it is the shocking announcement that the Princess Royal carried her own luggage in Australia (prompting concerns that the Royal Family is on a new, tight budget).
And here is a photo proving that indeed, Anne toted her tote. She does make me smile. Let's go in together and get her a bag that rolls for Christmas!

This time last week I was saying to a friend how having HRH attending The National Service of Remembrance at The War Memorial would make it an even more memorable. Little did any of us know.

Yesterday, November 6, they attended the opening of an exhibition celebrating the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC. The exhibition features the Lincoln Cathedral Magna Carta, one of only four surviving copies of the original issue in 1215.


They also attended a ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery (pic 6).

Princess Anne pays tribute to Canada's war dead weeks after Ottawa Parliament gun attack | Daily Mail Online

Princess Anne has joined Canadians to remember their war dead, weeks after a crazed gunman shot and fatally injured a soldier standing guard outside Parliament.

Anne is in Canada to represent the Queen at this year's commemorations, which will take place later today at the National Memorial in Ottawa.

The visit comes just weeks after the death of Corporal Nathan Cirillo, who was murdered by an Islamist fanatic as he stood guard outside the Canadian Parliament building.

She is indeed a remarkable member of the British royal family. I'm not sure there will ever be another Princess Anne.

 

[Beate28]

Yes, she is quite unique. And most likely there won't be another lady like her..Canada likes her and she likes us. One a side note: I was surprised how good her French pronounciation was. And it was touching that she mentioned Cpl Cirillo.
