Here is the formality of the state dinner, the spur-of-the-moment friendliness of an impromptu walkabout. Here are the region's largest cities and smallest villages, all decked out for royalty. Here are Maritimers and Newfoundlanders having good times together. Here are Charles and the beautiful young Princess.
The 1983 royal tour was an event that many still remember with fondness, nostalgia--and now, with sadness too. This illustrated souvenir portrays the Prince and Princess in the fresh bloom of their marriage.
