CASTRIES, St Lucia: Britain's Prince Andrew is in St. Lucia for a three-day visit to help celebrate the Caribbean island's 25 years of independence.
The Duke of York arrived Friday, greeted by government officials and a police band playing "God Save the Queen." It was the first royal visit since 1979, when Princess Margaret visited for Independence Day.
During his stay, Prince Andrew will attend a youth rally and the opening of the island's newest secondary school. He also will be the guest of honor at St. Lucia's Independence Day rally Sunday.
From St. Lucia, Prince Andrew is to travel to Barbados and then Guyana.
