The activities of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were well documented, but what Prince George and his sister Princess Charlotte experienced was more private.
Charlotte and George were publicly seen arriving at the airport in Victoria, British Columbia at the start of the tour. The children, both dressed in blue stole the show. George, who has been known for his exuberance was reluctant to meet the dignitories lined up to welcome them.
While Catherine and William carried out their royal duties, nanny Maria Borrallo looked after the children. The young prince and princess went swimming in the Government House pool and also went to Willows Beach which is a 15 minute drive from Victoria. The youngsters were seen making sandcastles and paddled in the water.
On the Tuesday the royal children visited Beacon Hill Children's Farm where they could play with the animals including miniature horses.
Towards the end of the visit, the royal children attended a party for military families in the gardens of Government House where the Cambridges stayed during the tour. Rabbits, goats, a dog and a children's entertainer who made balloon animals were there as well as a morning tea party.
On day 8, the family made their way to the seaplane terminal. After farewelling their hosts and fans, the Cambridges flew to a nearby airforce base to board the Canadian Air Force's A310 jet for the journey home.
The final treat for aviation nut George was being able to sit in the co-pilot's seat of the seaplane after the family arrived landed at the air force base. When asked where he was flying, George said he was "flying us to England".
A successful trip all around!
