These are very precious pictures of Prince George.
He really likes the teddy bear!!
Well, so far for me this tour has been almost a total bust. The 'Duke' in the thread topic has only really been seen on arrival and at the official welcoming. Since then we have seen he and his wife lay a wreath. Apart from that it has been the Duchess and Prince George dog and pony show.
While I admit the TV 3 camerapersons seemed to have been inhaling Catherines hairspray and sort of losing the plot, TV 1 was almost a no-show. To be honest so far it has been an almost creepy replay of William's first visit to NZ . . . Catherine teetering down the steps with George, Catherine walking round at the Plunket do carrying George. Where is William . . . relegated to carrying the baby bag?
And, without George, William disappears almost completely, drowned out by "over here Kate" etc. ad nauseum.

And it was a perfectly valid one. The other fathers were holding their children and interacting with them and not leaving it solely to the mothers, and I would have liked to see William doing that, too.
Have we seen William holding George at all on this trip? He always seems to be in Kate's arms but I would have expected George to be as comfortable in his father's arms as in his mother's and I would like to see William holding him.
I thought the dinner would be long gown not a cocktail dress, nevertheless she looks good.
The daytime event seemed like they had a great time. William looked like he had so much fun on the plane.
Do we know if there was a huge turnout of crowds?

Australian television news reported a third of the town attended the wreath-laying event dazzling.
Royal reporters on twitter said some people camped out overnight to get a spot, and also reported seeing people giving up and leaving as the crowds were too big for them to get anywhere near the Duke and Duchess.
Cheers, Sun Lion.

All the reporters are saying that tomorrow W and C will actually pick their own team for the yacht race across Auckland Harbour - and that they will be out and about on the waterfront meeting the public, and doing this race, for a couple of hours, so lots of time for people to see them.
Cheers, Sun Lion.
