Princess Eugenie is on a two-week tour of China and Mongolia with her father Prince Andrew.
The trip is aimed to help the Princess - who is on a gap year - get used to attending official royal engagements and while 18-year-old Eugenie will not be attending official meetings, she will join her father for evening receptions and dinners.
I love the pictures below of the pair; in the first one she's attending a banquet and looks as though her dad has just told her a thoroughly rubbish joke. She also looks a little like The Princess Diaries actress, Anne Hathaway.
In the second image her father, the Duke of York, looks on proudly as Princess Eugenie meets earthquake survivors in Dujiangyan.

The Duke of York is paying for his daughter's hotel rooms and food on the trip and has also bought her an air ticket which allows her to fly business class.







Oh to be royalty; all the perks but I'm sure it has it's downfalls as well. Tougher to "be yourself" with so many expectations.
Would be nice if to leave a comment didn't have to "sign in" or choose anonymously as most would think you can't enter their blog etc if they did.
Maybe that is why you didn't get a comment earlier or it's on a different post? Either way you posted SAME time as smeone else bad timing. :)
Nice blog and hope to see you around :)
