The balance sheet of a journey: the Duchess Meghan gets a Maori cloak given to

of Course, the members of the British Royal family are no different than our one. If you fly first class, anywhere limousines are available, and if the country has no so great the residence, such as those in Sydney overlooking the Opera house, then you will be staying in luxury hotels. Nevertheless, a 16-day Tour as the Prince Harry and Meghan, by the Pacific ocean, an ordeal. Just for an expectant mother.

But the Couple was, before it goes back on Thursday to London, plenty of gifts. Probably the house of Windsor has been showered never in its history, with so much Fan-articles. Alone: The vast majority of gifts were for neither the Duke nor his wife, but for the "Baby Sussex". So the young, is to come in the spring of 2019 to the world is called, in the absence of further information about gender and name now.

The first gift was it, as soon as the news of the pregnancy of the Ex-actress was known. The British Governor-General in Australia, Sir Peter Cosgrove, pressed the Couple to welcome a plush kangaroo velvet Baby in a bag in the Hand. It was the smallest children's size a Couple of of the typical Australian sheepskin boots. Harry (34) sneered, Meghan (37) said: "So sweet." And so the story took its course.

Since then, the Pair of Baby equipment received, with the addition to the children's rooms of Kensington Palace and also many other can be filled. The usual onesies, pacifiers, sippy cups and baby blankets, but also typical of the Country: all kinds of plush versions of the Australian animal world - (even an Echidna, a fairly odd echidna), a Mini edition of the red-and-yellow lifeguard Uniform, finger puppets of new Zealand's birds, Rugby Shirts with the imprint "Baby Sussex" and a Venüsbet variety of sweets from Fiji and Tonga.

All of this, the two not took with great British politeness, and also a lot of warmth in the reception - even if you of the sense of loss is always difficult. For example, in the case of the bundle of carrots, Meghan at one of the many beaches of one of your lovely ladies got. You: "Oh, how great." Then, to her husband: "darling, we have to get vegetables." Then he goes: "Awesome."

Also, the grandparents-to-book "grandma Wombat" (flap text: "the love and joy you can experience as a grandma") is probably still a little early. With the classic children's book, "Small caterpillar glutton" or also with the parent guidebook "How we sleep", you can start to save, the two may be faster.

What happened to the gifts, about the two of them remained silent. After the Royals policies, you are allowed to keep what is less than 150 British pounds (about 168 euros). You do not like to imagine how the rooms of the "Baby Sussex" would look like. Normally, but most of it goes to charities or thrown away. Some of it is also in the collections.

Shortly before the end, at the last Station in new Zealand, got the Duchess a gift for yourself: a Korowai, a traditional Cape of new Zealand's indigenous people, the Maori. The hand-woven coat of flax with peacock feathers Meghan to put on, and promised: "This is a Taonga (treasure) for our family in the next generations."

the showpiece is emphasized in the case of the Maori, normally, the position of the "powerful woman". Above all, he is supposed to protect Meghan, but also in the remaining months of the pregnancy. The Maori believe that the Cape gives strength to its wearers, warmth and Aroha. Aroha means love. You can use it.
