These are nice pictures but Letizia to me looks way too thin. I think she looked better with a little bit more of the baby weight on her, not quite so angular and skinny. But it is nice to see these pictures.

I fear tha I repeat me a lot but I can't resist to say that this couple looks absolutly fantastastic. Their presence in this kind of act is totaly tremandous. A mixing of physical beauty with a deep dedication to their work and a great touch of their love are making an extraordinary " coktail "( can we say that human being could be a " coktail " , jejejeje, sorry for th word )

Once time more the recipe ( sorry it's allways the "coktail") is an fansatatic success. I find the Letizia'line definitivley tremandous.

About her silhouette, the single thing that we can say it's she is very lucky to be like that without doing nothing. In my opinion it's the key of her resistance because as she is totaly healthy with her thinness without doing any diet to restrict herself, she benefit from a complete and balanced alimentation without reached a selective diet with wich it's difficult to have all the vitamina that we need.

Obviously the Letizia's shape is not a problem for Felipe, the fist to be interesed by that.....

Yes, they are thin, gorgeous, and care about their appearance ... unlike some of their royal and pseudo-royal peers spread across the continent.

Once there, they unholstered its "arsenal military: "tens of flags tricolors and a loudspeaker, tricolor also. They had already concentrated 60 people, the majority pertaining to the Communist Party of Spain, Red Current, Union of Communist Youths of Spain and United Izquierda. Two flags o­ndeaban to the stop, a tricolor with a red star and a Constitutionalist of the 31, with its shield, and by the part of behind, a flag of the PCE. Mottos were sung as "we want a pisito like the one of the principito", "you why you have won, to you who has voted to you", "borbones, to the elections" or "whatever hipocresía, whatever hipocresía, call democracy to the monarchy". The atmosphere was animated by percusionistas of the batucada-school "Repercussion".

Infantaleonor this web is republican and anarchistic, because of it it is called a "revolt".

These people are troublesome for the success of the visits of the Princes, and they want to stand out doing these protests. But the Prince in this occasion was more intelligent than they,he bring over to the zone where they were and he gave to them the hand. And this it was the notice, that the Prince had given them the hand, while others were insulting him.

It happened to the Queen a little seemed another day. When the Kings went to the Congress the deputies of Izquierda Unida side were going with an emblem of the republican flag. A deputy badly polite bring the queen over to show her ... the Queen with humor, said to her that it was very nice, and to the deputi the response caused anger. The Queen like the Prince in Alcala won with this provocation.

If we reed this article, we can see their are no many people to express this kind of opinion. We can't said that it's the majority.....and it's the normal game of the democracia.

Evidently. The groups that realize these protests are minority, in comparison with the hundreds of persons that it receives fondly to the Princes. In enclosed Alcala they took drums to do more noise.

They do it to acquire protagonism, because the political parties to which they represent need from protagonism to support the votes that have.
I believe that actually, it is something good, because it means it, that they cannot stand. If they organize this , they are recognizing in an indirect way that the visits of the Princes are a success and they do not like it.

 

[infanteleonor]

I agree entirely with you and I like the way in which the prnce cover the subject...very intelligent

This Friday in Alcala de Henares they were returning to repeat the same scenes of popular support to don Felipe and dona Letizia, that they have been nominated already Illustrious Visitors of the locality alcalaína. There they were acclaimed by more than one thousand of persons by those who reduced hands and interchanged embraces and enclosedly kisses, in the middle of a 'sea' of streamers by the colors of the national flag. In their meeting with the municipal Corporation, the Princes have demonstrated a " direct, nearby and concrete knowledge " of the reality of this locality of Madrid.
(...)

The close visit of the Princes of Asturias to a municipality of Madrid will be Tuesday, the 13th of June to Leganés.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It will be interesting to know the program of the visit of the Princes to Leganés. Leganés became sadly famous after the attempts of 11M, the terrorists had a flat rented there, and there they committed suicide with bombs, killing a policeman and stopping without house to many families.
In Alcala the Prince remembered the inhabitants of Alcala de Henareswho had died in the attempt (more than twenty because one of the trains was proceeding of there).

It's the great paradox of the beauty's canons. You have to beautiful compared with archetypes : classical as a greek antique or voluptuous Rubens or.... in this case as a fashion model... for a commercial trade mark for beauty products.

The last comparaison seems to me a little exagerated because the shot of Letizia in motion is a very good one, showing her stuning line and beautiful hairdo.

It's very funny because when the the Princess's hairdo is whithout any style or elegance, someones say she has a "sad hair", when she is wearing a pony tail, it's inadecuate, when her hairdo is sophisticated, she looks like fashion's model, and when her hair are free and moving, as for this event, she is the icon of commercial's trademark of shampoo!!! We have to hope that one day Letizia could to have a good hairdo .....

But, I agree totaly with you she looks absolutly beautifull

Later Don Felipe and Doña Letizia will sign the honorary book and will know the classrooms and rest dependencies. The inauguration acts will conclude with the visit to the exhibition “simulated Stage scenes”, with works of the Collection Box of Towns: 17 sculptures of artists like Juan Muñoz, Francisco Leiro, Marina Núñez, Jaume Plensa or Eva Lootz, as well as a representative picture of Miquel Barceló, complement of the work that this one made and exposed in 1998 in the own church that now lodges the palermitano Cervantes.
