Britain's newest baby princess had her first outing today with her parents Prince William and Kate Middleton, as she left for the royal family's country home.
Princess Charlotte, who is just four days old, left her Kensington Palace home in London to spend the next few weeks at Anmer Hall in Norfolk county in the east of England.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were seen leaving London in convoy in their Range Rover to spend time at the refurbished Georgian mansion on the Queen's private Sandringham estate.
William was at the wheel and Kate in the passenger seat, with Prince George and Princess Charlotte strapped into baby seats at the back.
Kensington Palace confirmed that the new parents were on their way to the country retreat, where they are expected to spend most of the English summer period for the next few months.
The 10-bedroom Anmer Hall was a gift for William's family from his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, who saw her newest granddaughter for the first time on Tuesday.
