Planning to visit for this occasion
If you are planning to visit the island for the day to witness this occasion I suggest you book your barge from River Heads to Kingfisher Bay Resort today. You may also be able to fly in via Air Fraser Hervey Bay but seats and schedules are limited. Otherwise head to Eurong from Inskip point in your own 4WD and hope to see them along the eastern beach.
I must admit I am a royal admirer and this lovely couple brings a smile to my face. Now to hear the news that they are soon to welcome a baby into their family is truly a blessing. And a royal one at that.
