THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall arrived in Australia today as they begin the second leg of their Diamond Jubilee tour.
Prince Charles and Camilla landed at Longreach Airport, Queensland, where the heir to the throne named a new plane used by the Royal Flying Doctor Service, before joining a traditional Australian barbeque.
In Australia the royal couple have set themselves the task of visiting four major cities - Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney and the capital Canberra - and the island state of Tasmania in just six days.
A royal aide said: "The theme of the Jubilee is service to others and their royal highnesses are determined to meet as many people as possible in the time available which is why we're trying to get around so many states and territories as we possibly can." » | Telegraph reporters | Monday, November 05, 2012
