Still waiting - the cars are getting ready.
Anyone driving into work this morning in Sydney could be delayed as they will have a straight through run with the red lights off for them.
They are staying at Admiralty House - the GG's home in Sydney and where William and Kate stayed.

Raining at the airport.
Being reported they will overnight at Fraser Island - probably the Kingfisher Resort. (I posted a short video, several pages back, on this resort.)
Hey jacqui24 - Eddie is live interviewing Omid outside of Admiralty House at the moment.
Omid saying the recent press briefing at Buckinham Palace was packed with U.S. and global media. This tour will have massive worldwide coverage.
And the skies are clearing up in this part of Sydney - sunshine even.
Being reported they will be caught up in Sydney work morning rush hour now - they have been landed an hour and still no sign of them.
(They were on the first of the International flights to arrive.)
And David Beckham is coming out and doing a soccer clinic while here.

 Not on that flight!
A police escort told one of the reporters at the airport that they are actually on the incoming Qantas flight - due to arrive in about five minutes!

Now reporting that they weren't on the BA flight that landed at 6.00 but on the QANTAS flight that lands at 6.59 which would be why they are still waiting as they are not yet on the ground.

The QANTAS flight - supposedly THE flight - is now on the ground.
Tarlita - the BA flight has now been confirmed as not their flight but the QANTAS flight which is now taxiing to the terminal. We won't see them there but hopefully will get a glimpse as they get into the cars to go to Admiralty House.

Wow...ha. Well ok then. They sure had everyone on pins and needles. I'm watching The Today Show Australia, and the hosts are hilarious. They are keeping me entertained while waiting for the arrival.

And brilliant sun over the Harbour - how wonderful.
They're expected to take the most direct route to Admiralty House.
Eastern Distributor, Cahill Expressway and over the Bridge into the suburb of Kirribilli.
Great views of the Harbour for them.
Omid being interviewed again - saying Invictus Games are almost sold out and some suprise guests, friends of Harry coming.

Oh ok. Anyway they said earlier that Jessica and Ben Mulrooney will fly here and join them on tour. True or not is anyones guess.
Oh goodness Julianna, our Karl Stephanovic keeping you amused. He is the tv host on sunrise. Giving Jo the Juice delivery truck at the airport a funny commentary.

The juice bit was hilarious. I almost spit out my water at "I reckon this baby is going to come out before the Royal couple does."

I hope they get organised soon as I have to get ready to go to hydrotherapy at 8.30 and breakfast is due in a couple of minutes.
Something may be happening - Channel 7 seemed excited about some men - maybe security.
Here comes the entourage - here they are.
They are getting into the cars ....

They are off to stop the Sydney traffic while they make their way with 'rolling stops of the red lights' to Admiralty House. This happens in many cities all the time.
