Anglesey is an island with something for almost everyone – from motor racing enthusiasts and water sports fans to walkers and bird watchers.
But now there is a new pursuit for visitors . . . royal watching.
For love birds Prince William and his new bride Kate are starting married life at the farmhouse home they made for themselves on the island in the months leading up to last week's spectacular royal wedding.
Honeymoon will take place later, but the actual time and place for it has not been disclosed yet. The bride's side that is the wife’s will incur the honeymoon costs.
The newlyweds’ plans for the nearest future feature tours with official visits. People in Canada and New Zealand have already been waiting for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. However, the nearest plans of the young couple have not yet included furnishing the heirs. Kate Middleton said that they would not act hastily about offspring.
Onlookers said she had a spring in her step as she filled several carrier bags and loaded them into the boot of her Audi A3.
No doubt her already buoyant mood was lifted further with the news that she and Prince William are to take America by storm with a whirlwind visit to Hollywood this summer. There, no doubt, they will receive the full celebrity treatment.
Unlike yesterday, when Kate smiled at locals as well as the photographer as she ‘skipped’ across the car park to return her empty trolley before driving back to the remote farmhouse that she shares with her new husband.
t also emerged yesterday that William’s first day back at work – and away from his new wife – was a busy one. The 28-year-old, who has chosen to keep the working name Flight Lieutenant William Wales, arrived at his RAF Valley base on Wednesday morning and was soon involved in two emergencies.
In the first, his Sea King chopper was sent to rescue a 70-year-old man who suffered a heart attack while on Lliwedd, a mountain in Snowdonia National Park, and was airlifted to hospital on Wednesday afternoon.
