If anyone knows how to plan an itinerary for a royal tour, it is Whanganui's favourite royal watcher Marie Sheppard.
When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle visit Rotorua this week she will be there and hopes to meet them.
Marie and husband Mike are on the road in their distinctive yellow "Bizzi Bee" camper van and plan to be in a strategic spot in Rotorua when the Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrive there on Wednesday.
The Sheppards are in Auckland visiting family but Marie has been on the phone to Rotorua Lakes Council planning the next stage of their journey.
Mayor Steve Chadwick spoke to Marie in person and advised her of the best parking spot for Bizzi Bee.
