Victoria's official visits abroad are always interesting to follow. Considering that she usually does it on her own (save for when her younger brother accompanied her), and still end up with somewhat the same programme as when a couple does them, I find it admirable.

And to the pony-tail... the UAE is surely the one place when having the hair away from the neck is sensible because of the heat?

Thanks for the photos, she's been quite busy so far! I'm surprised that she is spending a week in the UAE, it's quite a long time for such a small place.

Hmm, I have a feeling the shots of Victoria in an abaya will not go down very well in Sweden.

Loved the pictures from Cp Victoria's visit to the gerfalcon breeding & the desert. I wonder if she went on a camel, usually they have camel rides.
Also the school visit and interacting with the children was nice too see.

UAE might indeed be a small place but there is so much too do. Why wont pictures go well in Sweden? She was visiting a mosque.
