    Sources: The Saturday Age published a very limited itinerary of Charles and Mary on 26 March 2005, which pointedly neglected to mention any of Prince Charles' charitable activities.

    The full Australian itinerary of Prince Charles's visit was provided by both the Australian Monarchist League and Australians for Constitutional Monarchy, which posted the full itinerary on the web, thus revealing numerous errors in The Age's report. We will attempt to verify HRH Frederik and HRH Mary's itinerary, and further research HRH Victoria's itinerary, in the near future.

    Suggested times and places to greet Prince Charles were provided by the Australian Monarchist League.
