She seem s to be wearing less makeup on this visit and has stopped putting it on with a shovel - she looks much better for using less IMO
 
I have just seen King Abdullah in Plaza San Martin, after his meeting with the President.

Seems Rania didn't attend the ceremony. Is that because this is a working visit to Argentina rather than a state visit, like with Chile? Anyway, she will have some competition in the elegance stakes at the dinner given by the Argentinian president, who is a former model or beauty queen as I remember.

Thank you everybody for all the photos, videos etc.

Rania and Noor have both looked wonderful during this trip and considering how hectic it is (it's hard to keep up) they have done a great job of hiding any tiredness.

Does anybody know if they have taken llittle Haya and Hashem with them? Haya is only about 18months old so it must be hard for her to be away from her parents.
