King Charles and Queen Camilla are visiting Canberra, their first event in the city in nearly a decade. This is Charles' 16th trip to Australia and his first major foreign visit since his cancer diagnosis.

King Charles and Queen Camilla had two very different travel plans at the start of their royal tour of Australia and Samoa. On Friday, Oct. 18, the royal couple arrived in Sydney, Australia, appearing together during a formal welcome. However, as People reports, the pair left London, England on separate flights—and for a very specific reason.

King Charles and Queen Camilla will fly to Australia's capital Canberra on Monday where crowds are expected to gather for their first visit to the city in almost a decade.
