The famous royal couple, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William
& Kate paid a visit when I was on holiday.
Well.. you weren’t there as well when we were visiting the Buckingham
Palace.
Accompanied by Prince Harry, they were visiting Mons on
August 4, 2014. It was part of the First World War commemorations.
According to
the First World War memorial site of the Belgian government, Mons is where the
first British soldier was killed during the war.
The members of the British Royal Family were warmly
applauded by more than 7,000 people gathered in the Grand Place, when
they appeared on the balcony of the Hôtel de Ville before took off to Saint-Symphorien Military Cemetery to attend the memorial
service in the evening.
