Kate and William put New York on Map

Kate and William arrive in New York for a three-day visit. Time reported: “as anticipation built in New York, British Consul General Danny Lopez told the press, ‘It’s been incredible to witness the level of excitement from people wanting to be part of it, wanting to attend, wanting to help us and support us.The level of excitement in New York has been absolutely phenomenal.’ Sir Peter Westmacott, the British ambassador to the United States, explained, ‘It’s the latest embodiment of the lasting and very close relationship with the royal family. It’s important to us to ensure they have a good time. We hope this will be a very satisfactory happy fun visit.’”  And this ridiculous comment from a gushing onlooker, “This will put New York on the map.” Perhaps the Americans could relieve us of the British Royals, not so far to travel after all?
