Loved seeing the couple go down a line of local schoolchildren when they arrived at Dubbo, shaking hands. A very little boy at the end, not of school age, came spontaneously out of the line and gave Harry a hug, and then touched his beard, much to Harry's amusement. The photo shutters were going crazy!

That little guy generated my biggest smile of the day (so far). Kids just seem to naturally gravitate towards Harry and Harry loves every minute of it. He gets down to their level and really communicates with them.
Harry would have made an excellent grade school teacher if he had been born into another way of life.

It's funny, many years ago someone would bring along a corgi for the Queen's walkabout, now its all sorts of dogs for Camilla, small kids and babies for Harry, so I am wondering what they will start bringing for Meghan?
The hug from the toddler was priceless, even more so than his fascination with Harry's beard. But did you see the look on his mother's face when that kid went in for the hug?

Could it be what Iluvbertie said a few days ago?

Jacqui24,
My apologies for being naive, but what did Iluvbertie say a few days ago.

Maybe jacqui24. Can't think what else would be added at the last minute apart from some sort of disaster area visit.
Also, are they coming back to Admiralty House tonight - or do they go straight down to Melbourne from Dubbo, ready for tomorrow?
Hope you all saw the cake cutting at the Flying Doctors, Harry is enjoying the day.
If you see footage of the farm visit - due to start in about ten minutes - the reporter was just explaining that this is what is called a green drought.
Doesn't look too bad, but no actual feed there for the stock.

They are going back to Admiralty House tonight. That will be there base until they go to Fraser Island next Monday.
I have heard predictions of between 10-15,000 people being at the Picnic in the Park today. Thats quite a big crowd.

Thanks Axeyman.
And wow - Daphne is up on the Harbour Bridge - the footpath, not the arch - being interviewed on live TV.
She sure has some get up and go - I've only just had a shower and got dressed for the day.
And Iluvbertie suggested maybe Qld would get a royal visit after the storm damage a few days back Axeyman.
As they'll be in Qld anyway - that's certainly a possibility.
Hopefully Dubbo will be spared any rain or showers today - certainly a big change, for the better, here in Sydney the last few hours.

Or when she realized he was tugging on Harry's beard. The kid clearly had a fascination with red hair. After he hugged Meghan, he hugged Harry again, and ended up touching Harry's hair.

Here you go Mary and Frederik fans, Danish posters -
- while the couple are looking at some sheep at the farm, Channel 7 has an Invictus spokesman in the studio.
Oz or Denmark in the wheelchair rugby - sounds like it's down to these two teams to take it out and it will be full on.
Dubbo weather must be warming up - Meghan has her jacket off and her sleeves rolled up.
And they've moved on to the cattle. Harry and Meghan putting out some feed for the herD.
Reporter saying it's twenty-six degrees there.
And everyone is doing the great Aussie salute - flies eveywhere, airport as well as at the farm.

Yes his mums face was funny. Full of surprise her little boy did that. The little guy just fell into Meghans arms before going back to Harry. Kids are great aren't they.

Oh no. Not just rain on it's way to the picnic - but hail coming too.
Due to hit Dubbo in about forty-five minutes. Everyone hoping it exhausts itself before reaching the crowds.

Don't think the Queen, Kate or Mary would have used the Admiralty House kitchen during their stay!
Meghan is making her own mark in many ways.
And live coverage showing the motorcade stopped at the farm gate on their way out, and the couple got out to greet the people there, who had worked out which farm was being visited. (Running a little behind schedule before stopping.)
Wonderful bouquets for Meghan.

Wow! thats a multi tasking young modern woman right there.
There are so many great layers to this lovely young woman. No wonder Harry is dazzled by her.
