On the sixth day of their Royal Tour of Canada Prince William and Kate arrived in Yellowknife after an exciting fun-packed day on Prince Edward Island yesterday. Yellowknife is the capital and largest city of the Northwest Territories and it will be the furthest north that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will travel on the Canadian Royal Tour.
William and Kate's schedule is not as packed today and after their official duties they will be taking a break for themselves before travelling to Calgary for a rodeo before then heading to LA in California.
The trip to Prince Edward Island yesterday saw Prince William whose day job is working as an RAF Search and Rescue pilot, land an adapted helicopter on water in an operation referred to as 'waterbirding'. For once Kate was on the other side of the camera whilst she filmed William successfully land the helicopter several times.
Another highlight of the day on Prince Edward Island saw Prince William and Kate go head to head in a Dragon Boat race on the lake in an area called Peake's Quay. It had been originally thought that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge would not actually be rowing but steering the boats.
They impressed everybody and true to form got right into the thick of it and took part as rowers. William's boat won, but not by a lot. Very exciting to watch!
