Prince William, 27 was so impressed by the warm welcome and weather he received upon his arrival in Sydney on Tuesday that he joked about moving there. He said “it’s been a terrific couple of days in Sydney and because of that I’ve joked that I will actually try to buy a house in Sydney” and “so if any of you have got any properties for sale then please let me know,” (yahoo news).
Second in line to the English throne, Prince William spent two days in Sydney, Australia a trip he requested unofficially, to get to know the people and the country better. His last trip to Sydney in 1983 he was only nine months old and accompanied by his late mother Princess Diana. William or “Wombat Willie” as he was nicknamed on that trip, was welcomed to the country in the poor, innner-city neighborhood of Redfern with a traditional Aboriginal “smoking ceremony” that was presided over by a painted elder holding smoking gum leaves. William spent his time meeting with elders, visting a drug rehab center, enjoying a marksmanship contest at an army base, an open-air barbeque, a night out at a popular nightspot and a ride accross the harbour on a high-speed boat. On Thursday he will visit some of the areas near Melbourne that were decimated by bush fires before returning home.
