Royals Round-Up, November 11th, 2016

Prince Harry

Fresh off his "Please Leave The Woman I Love Alone!" press release of great swooniness -- which we shall, I am sure, discuss at length in the comments -- Harry put on his most Officer and Gentleman dress suit and popped out for various Remembrance Day events.

Prince Harry

Which included being charming with this absolutely adorable child.

Told you it was charming.

Duke Of Edinburgh And Prince Harry Visit The Fields Of Remembrance

I'm always pleased by Harry's ruffle-front coat, which looks like something J Crew is going to knock over in the coming months.

Just wanted to give you a wider shot of Westminster Abbey here. (Looks like there's some construction!)

Prince Harry Attends The Armistice Day Service

Moving on to today, Informative Caption tells me the following: "Prince Harry arrives to attend The Armistice Day Service at The National Memorial Arboretum...Armistice Day commemorates the signing of the armistice in WW1 between the Allies and Germany at 11am on November 11, 1918. At the exact time and date each year after Britain has held a two minute silence to remember the dead from the First and Second World Wars and the 12000 British Service personal who have been killed or injured since 1945."

This is the Armed Forces Memorial. These are always very moving.

Wills

Earlier in the weeks, Wills visited "the Living Memory And Centenary Fields Projects, Kensington Memorial Park," where he wore a handsome coat and ran around with toddlers.

Wills and Children

"I KNOW HOW TO DIG A HOLE, SIR."

Wills

He also visited an old cemetery and looked at graves -- I suspect this convo was about upkeep of this location.

The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall Tour Oman - Day 1

Meanwhile, these two are off visiting a variety of places in the Middle East, including Oman. I love how Camilla's face is basically like, "oy, here we go again." That color is great on her.

Also, (a) that cake looks fantastic, and (b) all of these woman look beautiful.

Chaz and Cam in Abu Dhabi

"This is apparently something called 'a bird.'"

Chaz and Cams in the United Arab Emirates - Day 1

This is the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, and I just thought this was such a beautiful shot.

Chaz and Cams in United Arab Emirates - Day 1

This is inside the mosque. It is spectacular. Heather and her husband and I went to Egypt in 2008, and visited the mosque at at the Citadel there, and once we left, I literally realized I had hurt my neck because I kept looking up at the beautiful light fixtures and ceilings. I feel like I might do the same here. This mosque is fairly new -- it was built in '96 -- but it is spectacular.

Chaz and Cams in United Arab Emirates - Day 1

And very picturesque.

Chaz and Cams in United Arab Emirates

This was an event held at the Al Jahili Fort, which I just discovered you can explore in depth in Google Street View (thanks to its website).

Chaz and Cams in United Arab Emirates

This seems about right. Per Informative Caption: "Prince Charles visited Bu Tinah island, a UNESCO protected marine area, [where] he saw a variety of birds, including Socotra Cormorants, and a Turtle. " I am leaving Informative Caption's capitalization of the word "turtle" in case it was, indeed, a very important turtle.

Camz and Princess Haya Bint Al Hussein

Princess Haya Bint Al Hussein looks fabulous in this dress. She was educated in the UK (including at Oxford) and is an accomplished show jumper, who went to the Olympics. So she and Cams EASILY were able to rustle up some small talk.

Camz and Chaz visit the UAE

"It's so much easier to get out of car in pants!"

Camz and Chaz visit Bahrain

It's a model ship! I hope they next made Camilla put it in a bottle.

The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall Tour Bahrain - Day 3

It's a beautiful basket!

The Prince Of Wales And The Duchess Of Cornwall Tour Bahrain

Here, Informative Caption really kicks in. Ahem: "[Chaz and Cams] visited the Krishna Temple, [where they] toured the temple to learn about its history and the history of the Hindu community. They were welcomed to the compound with garlands before a short meeting with priests, [and] a reception with members of different faith communities." Picture Arthur Edwards

They also visited the Old Post Office Museum and Manama Souq, where they "looked at an exhibition of historic stamps, including the 1948 British Royal Silver Wedding stamp. Their Royal Highnesses unveiled an enlarged version of two new stamps that have been designed to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the UK – Bahrain relationship, before they viewed the first Bahraini stamp printed in the UK. [They] then walked to the Souq, past local school children and members of the public. At the Souq, The Prince and The Duchess heard about the area's history and the different members of the community, met craft makers and viewed their products, and listened to a Punjabi band of drummers and other traditional music acts." That sounds like a very interesting day.
