The Royal family have been out in force since the opening ceremony, getting fully into the swing of Olympia-mania with the rest of Britain.

Riding the wave of goodwill and excitement from the Queen's stellar 'Bond girl' appearance during the Opening Ceremony, the young Royals seemed to be on a high, laughed and joking with Team GB at the Olympic Village today.

It seemed the excitement was reciprocated by athletes as they meet the young Royals. Prince Harry was given a huge toy kangaroo as a gift from Australian athletes, while Prince William posed for a photo for the Australian coach. Meanwhile the Duchess of Cambridge received a compliment on her wedge shoes from swimmer Rebecca Adlington.

One of the most exhilarating moments from them as a family came as they watched Zara Phillips win silver in the three day eventing.
