Drenched in sweat, the royal couple saluted heads of state and rock stars.
We understood the lack of demeanour and couture, the heat was intense and humid.
On such an island one has to learn new tricks to look presentable, air conditioning does not exist.
Of course my white linen suit remained unruffled, I left it hanging in the closet.
A good thing that the fragrance of vibrant jasmine and honeysuckle created a diversion.
A momentous evening!
