During the visit Prince William told members of the public, "[Kate] has the coldest hands ever."
But he followed up his remark with a sweet compliment, "They say, 'Cold hands, warm heart.'" he added.
William and Kate, who have been married since 2011, made the trip without their three children Prince George, eight, Princess Charlotte, six and Prince Louis, four, as they were attending school and nursery.
