Hi! I thought it would be nice to open a thresd for his visit. Since it will be atleast a week long. Its a shame his pretty daughters aren't accompanying him! I really wanted to get a chance to see them.
Here's the times of India story on his visit.

He's so much taller than that gentleman he was with! Does he just dress in suit and tie? When does he have to don the garb of the hosting nation? Anybody know?

In my many years of Windsor watching, I've seen Andrew in suit-and-tie, dinner jacket, uniform, and a safari-type suit. That's it. Oh yes, I've seen him in a cowboy hat as well.

That's funny because just a day or two ago I saw a picture of Andrew in a suit and although I thought he looked good as usual, I started thinking, "I don't think I've ever seen him in anything but suits!"

Then I remembered seeing him on the golf course in polo shirt and slacks. No, he doesn't wear a suit while playing golf.
