Thanks for posting the pictures, OP!  I always enjoy checking out what Kate is wearing, and oh my...she has the most beautiful head of hair!!!

 

They certainly appear to be a lovely couple, devoted to each other and their duties.

@lmt   Thanks for the pics.  Love the pic of her w/her hand on his arm and the way they are looking at each other.  Also the last pic of him gently guiding her.


Me too, I didn't think they were allowed to touch each other in public because I have never seen them hold hands or anything.  They always look great together.  Thanks for postingSmiley Happy

Re: Will and Kate Visit Wales

Kate had a sweet reunion with two of her primary school teachers. She was pleased to bump into Denise Evans-Alford and Kevin Alford outside Joe's Ice Cream parlour in Mumbles.

 

Kate attended St Andrew's prep school in Pangbourne, Berkshire, along with her siblings Pippa and James Middleton, until she was 13. Mrs Evans-Alford was her netball coach while Mr Alford taught French and German.

 

After the reunion, Mrs Evans-Alford said: “Kate hasn’t changed at all, you can tell, Pippa and James are wonderful too. I’ve been waiting 20 years for this."

They both sure do seem to enjoy what they're doing, especially Kate.
