Princess Anne took quite the whirlwind trip to Toronto on Sunday, boarding a flight to the Canadian city in the morning and departing again for the UK later that night! The Princess Royal was on an official visit to Rotary International's International Convention at the Air Canada Centre, where she opened proceedings as an honorary member of the Rotary Club of Elgin. A flight to Toronto from Heathrow is no mean feat at just under eight hours - so it was quite the journey to take for one short event.

Earlier this year it was revealed that Anne remains the hardest-working member of the royal family, racking up the most public engagements - ahead of the Earl of Wessex and the Prince of Wales, who are just behind her in second and third place. The 67-year-old has completed 75 days of service according to the figures, which covered the first half of the year from 1 January to 22 May. It looks like she's on track to continue her winning streak!
