Oooh, this royal tour is going to be so fun. Both kids, and the added frisson of Justin Trudeau and his dreamy head and easy way with children. Already, the pics are cute and they only just got here. There. Whatever, I’m just happy we’re all operating in my time zone for this one. Let’s settle in and enjoy the many many pictures of George that I downloaded. What? He’s very expressive. (Note: as ever, I’m sure more pics will trickle in after I publish this; if I miss anything super good, I’ll plonk it in the post last, or in tomorrow’s coverage!)
Don’t you want to see some video? I know you do:

I like this one because it’s a glimpse of what it would look like if the four of them were ever forced to stand around and wait for the valet:
A gorgeous Royal wave from Prince George as he arrives in Canada with sister Charlotte and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at 433 Squadron, Victoria, at the start of #RoyalTourCanada. Too much cute! Kate looked elegant in @jennypackham and @lockhatters and, as predicted, the Queen’s diamond maple leaf brooch A video posted by Emily Nash (@emilynashhello) on
And, finally: This was QUITE a large and enthusiastic greeting, Canada. You guys are friendly! I know that we had at least one Fug National in the crowd. We can’t wait to hear your Reports From the Field!
Prince William and Kate walk the red carpet to cheers from thousands gathered #royalvisitcanada https://t.co/tegMSpS6mz
