William and Kate in gracious farewell after visit to Canada

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge thanked Canadians for their hospitality Saturday as they boarded a seaplane which took them to their jetliner and the flight home. Prince William and Kate said the trip was memorable because they brought Prince George, 3, and Princess Charlotte, who is 16 months, with them for the children’s first visit to Canada. “We feel very lucky to have been able to introduce George and Charlotte to Canada,” Prince William said in a statement. “This country will play a big part in the lives of our children and we have created such happy memories for our family during this visit.
