The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were greeted by some of the biggest crowds of their tour to New Zealand today.
More than 15,000 people turned out to greet the royal couple in Cambridge - a town where the entire population is just 18,000.
And while all were dazzled by the Duchess, who was wearing a stunning green Erdem coat, she admitted that her own husband wasn't a fan.
She told local Evie Hayes, 68, who admired her outfit: 'I like it but William thinks it is a bit bright.'
Cambridge was named after George William Frederick Charles, Queen Victoria's first cousin and the second Duke of Cambridge.
For 39 years he was the Commander-in-Chief of the British Army and a powerful figure in the British establishment.
Two British generals decided to lend his name to a settlement at the head of the Waikato region.
The couple arrived to defeating cheers as they entered the local town hall to meet dignitaries and laid two red roses on the nearby War Memorial.
After the formalities were over, the couple embarked on a walkabout, shaking hands with dozens of members of the public, some of whom had slept out overnight.
