Prince Charles is making his first official visit to Philadelphia.
He and his wife Camilla are to be given the red carpet treatment.
They will also take a trip to see the "Liberty Bell". The symbol of the former colony`s successful overthrow of the loony English Royal family`s `influence` in the land of the free.
On Sunday, they will take a train to New York, where Charles will receive an award from fellow tree huggers.
The couple are reported to have taken a commercial flight to the USA, in keeping with Charles` stand on the environment. No more private jets. Good for you Sir!
They will be followed , at a respectful distance (6 days behind) everywhere they go, by their bags.
Tonight, the bags are guests of honour , at a dinner in Chicago.
