Prince William and Catherine in Singapore


The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are in Singapore as part of the Diamond Jubilee tour representing the Queen. The Royal Couple are in Singapore till Thursday and are staying at Raffles Hotel.
Yesterday they had an orchid named after them in the National Orchid Garden and also viewed the orchid named after Princess Diana. The new orchid is a Vanda orchid and is purple and white in colour and is called Vanda William Catherine.
Today they visited the new Gardens by the Bay and a crowd of about 3000 were hoping to catch a glimpse of the Royal couple near the Supertrees before they went into the Cloud Forest dome to climb the mountain.
I was certainly melting in the crowd and my photos show the Royal couple were feeling the heat also !




No need for a sign - just follow the crowds



One of the school groups



The Supertrees



One way to get noticed!


The press were fond of her


The crowd were given flags to wave

Just before the walkabout in the heat



Helped being tall



The walkabout



The Prince was very talkative



Zoom lens came in handy



Getting Hot



Needs an Isotonic drink 



The Duchess was all smiles
