He enjoys seeing live tigers. Harry's having a wonderful trip and everyone seems pleased that he's visiting them.

For what I've seen, this trip seems to be quite successful as for now, and everyone seems to enjoy it to the fullest.

I found myself amused at Harry starting his visit in his (unofficial) royal uniform of a blue suit and tie. This was rapidly followed by the loss of the tie, the jacket and then out came the shirt tails and up rolled the sleeves.
From then on it's been suede ankle boots (fashion not army), jeans and "real" to the nth degree. His avid enthusiasm seems contagious and his interest genuine. His ready smile and humour seem to have made this a successful visit thus far and here's hoping HM continues to deploy her secret charm offensive weapon many more times in the future.

Action Man II. I'm smitten and admit it. 
... And BTW - DM amended the headline, which did not include the fact that the "hunt" was to simply see a tiger. They did not see one.

Great tour so far both for Harry and the country 
He seems to be really enjoying himself, both with the people and in nature with the WWF and rafting. He is so natural with the people. I like they had a teenager giving him a tour instead of some official.

Thanks for the coverage so far. No one mentioned, no one left out.
Harry is a true asset for the BRF and he excels at these kinds of visits.

I am so relieved that this village solved the "My head is too big" issues. I also think that my old practice of breathing deeply to ward off a negative response is going to be replaced with hands together/bow/Namaste. I'll still breathe deeply. 
It would be so life changing to sleep with the Gurkhas! I envy Harry.
As a feminist, I do admit to wanting to understand Gurkha women's life experience better. A 2012 study said that PTSD was not much an issue for the Gurkhas.
Maybe we can learn something,you know?

It must be wonderful to enjoy the hospitality of a Nepalese village in the Himalayan foothills and then go outside and see the sunrise over those mountain tops. I think Harry is appreciative of it all, and seems in high spirits (and laden with scarves and garlands.)

Harry is definitely one man who does not let ego play an important role in his life. No matter where he goes, be it a formal military occasion or a celebration of color in a local school, Harry always seems to be able to mesh right in and fully experience whatever is going on around him.
It is when a person can appreciate and become a part of the world around them that they find that the world appreciates having them in their midst. This definitely describes Harry.

Surprisingly little coverage in Britain of this tour given Harry's so called 'popularity' - Three of the daily newspapers didn't send any reporters, which seems to be the benchmark by which we measure royal popularity lately. I thought he'd be all over the front pages.
Does anyone know what time tomorrow he ends his visit to Nepal?

Haha! Good one Rudolph!
I've been seeing tons of photos (which have been admired all over the forums) including a photo of a large press pen halfway up a mountain. Richard Palmer gave a list of those reporters who were going, before the tour started. He mourned that he wouldn't be, and perhaps wouldn't be going to India either.
It's been very successful and Harry was mobbed by schoolgirls and by villagers and other locals who were all pleased to see him, and he showed in his own inimitable way how to interact with people who flocked to see him.

We'll agree to disagree. It doesn't look like a successful tour from where I'm sitting. Of course there are 'tons' of photos, it happens every royal tour. I'm just talking about the coverage in Britain.
It's good locals are glad to see him. Locals were glad to see Charles in the Balkans. Seems locals are glad to see royals no matter where they go .
