George Charlotte Louis Extremely Excited JOINING With King Charles During Family’s Fishing Tradition
Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are soaking up the last days of summer, but unlike other kids, their playground is Balmoral Castle. In recent weeks, the three children and their parents are expected to make their annual summer trip over 500 miles north of London to immerse themselves in country life. Clearly, George, Charlotte, and Louis already know how dear Scotland is to them, and they’re starting to build their own happy memories here too.
William and the children will likely adjust to whatever is best for Catherine. When the Wales family arrives at Balmoral sometime soon, Prince William will probably follow in his father’s footsteps by exploring the vast grounds with the kids, as they have in years past. Family and friends convened at the castle, making the most of the grounds with outdoor activities like hunting, fishing, horseback riding, and picnics—pastimes that King Charles will likely continue.
The monarch, who has always held a deep affection for his grandchildren, was overjoyed to see William and Catherine, along with their three children, arrive at Balmoral. The king greeted them with open arms, eager to spend quality time with the family during their stay at the royal estate. Grandpa Wales cherishes reading tales to them, possibly treating the little ones to a story time featuring *The Old Man of Lochnagar*, his 1980s children’s book set in the caves near Balmoral.
Perhaps the king will also find a quiet moment for a walk with his eldest grandson, Prince George, in Prince George’s Woods—the arboretum at Birkhall, named after George at his birth in 2013. One of the highlights of the family’s time at Balmoral was immersing themselves in the simplest pleasures of nature. According to sources, they recently took a private fishing trip near the Balmoral estate—a peaceful excursion that allowed them to unwind and connect with the beauty of their surroundings. King Charles was thrilled to introduce his grandchildren to the joys of fishing, a passion he hopes to pass on to future generations.
The insider added that Charles was so proud to see them enjoying themselves and embracing a tradition that has been a part of the royal family for generations. The young royals listened intently as their grandfather spoke, absorbing his wisdom and developing a deeper appreciation for the tradition. “It was a special moment for the family,” said the source. The king cherishes these opportunities to connect with his grandchildren and create lasting memories.
In addition, the royal children spent their days exploring the estate, playing games, and enjoying the natural beauty of the Scottish Highlands. Meanwhile, The Prince and Princess of Wales also took time to relax and unwind, relishing the chance to step away from their busy schedules and enjoy the tranquility of Balmoral. The couple was grateful for the opportunity to spend quality time with King Charles and the rest of the family.
The late Queen Elizabeth roamed the grounds as a child, as did Charles, who brought his sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, there when they were growing up. The princes were inseparable, solid for one another. Royal photographer Arthur Edwards previously told of the bonds he saw between Charles and his sons, commenting on iconic shots he took of the trio exploring the River Dee with their dogs in August 1997. The author said they looked so relaxed, having fun together on that summer holiday in Balmoral when I took these photos.
As the family’s holiday at Balmoral comes to a close, King Charles reflected on the precious moments he shared with his grandchildren. The king, who values family above all else, expressed his hope that the family’s horse-riding tradition would continue to thrive in years to come. King Charles is committed to preserving the traditions and values of the royal family, the source concluded. He looks forward to many more happy reunions with his grandchildren and the opportunity to share his love for horses and nature with them.
The heartwarming reunion at Balmoral was a reminder of the enduring bonds that hold the family together, even amid the challenges and responsibilities of their roles. For King Charles and his grandchildren, the memories of their time at Balmoral will be cherished for years to come.
