Summary
The two Princesses are at Portsmouth and go aboard the "Kempenfeldt" to join the "Empress of Britain" at sea to be the first to greet their parents. Then at last the Empress of Britain docks at Southampton and Queen Mary leads other members of the royal family aboard. The King and Queen then drive to the Civic Centre where His Majesty says "It’s grand to be home again". After the royal train’s arrival at Waterloo Station, Their Majesties begin their drive to Buckingham Palace through crowd lined streets.
