Prince Harry attends Circus Zambia at Queen's Commonwealth Trust event, Lusaka
Prince Harry visit to Zambia - 27 Nov 2018
Circus Zambia, a partner of the Trust. Circus Zambia was founded by Gift Chansa and friends from Chibolya, a district of Lusaka that faces many challenges. The organisation equips young people from vulnerable backgrounds across Lusaka with life skills while providing educational and employment opportunities.
Harry is in Zambia this week, and this was not the FIRST thing he did, but I was never going to resist opening with this photo. There was some weird drama at the beginning of the week wherein some royals reporters were noting that Meghan pulled out of this trip due to Zika fears -- Zambia doesn't have Zika -- but as far as I know, Meghan was never meant to go in the first place. (I do think it's possible that the press was told she MIGHT go but that it was never really realistically on the table.)

Prince Harry attends a reception at The British High Commission in Lusaka Zambia
Prince Harry visit to Zambia - 26 Nov 2018
This was "a reception at The British High Commission in Lusaka, Zambia," and it looks fun! Harry seems more relaxed on this trip than he did in Australia, I think because a solo trip for one of the princes is always a little less intense than ones that the duchesses go on in terms of press and attention.

Prince Harry visits Burma Barracks in Lusaka to meet WW2 veterans and war widows Prince Harry visit to Zambia - 27 Nov 2018
Here, Harry is visiting Burma Barracks, "to meet WW2 veterans and war widows." We were chatting earlier this week about how when Harry is really engaged in the events he's attending, you can tell, and he's not as good at putting on an Interested Face as his wife is (or Meghan is just more interested in more things, which I also think is very possible). This Zambia trip seems like it was well-scheduled to take advantage of Harry's interests.
