Yes, I saw the images of her father in the television, but I did not see Ana. Also Letizia's images accompanying Francisco Ayala were seen , helping him to go down the stage and accompanying him on his seat.

Apparently, it took them 1 hour to walk the 450 meters between the Town Hall and the Cathedral. Here are images from nortecastilla.es:

The citizens take to th streets to receive the Princes

Fans, umbrellas, flags of Spain and Castilla and Leon, cameras of digital photos and gifts for Infant Leonor today marked the welcome that thousands of citizens offered the Princes de Asturias, Don Felipe and Doña Letizia, in their visit City Rodrigo (Salamanca) on the occasion of the inauguration of the thirteenth edition of the Ages of the Man. The smallest member of the Royal House was not only present in photographs, but also in the memory of the neighbors of the locality, who among other presents, gave stuffed animals for her, a suit and `babi' for when she goes to the day-care center.

Although the citizens filled the street around the 9,30 hours to occupy the best sites from where to follow the Royal visit, they had to wait more than two hours to live one of the waited for moments more of the day, the arrival of the Princes. Around the 11,40 hours, Don Felipe and Doña Letizia, that finished landing in a helicopter in the football ground Francisco Mateos …

At 12,00 hours, Don Felipe and Doña Letizia they left the Town Hall to on foot initiate a route of about 400 meters until the Cathedral, itinerary that became one `procession' of greetings and autographs to the neighbors who delayed in more than 50 minutes the schedule anticipated for the inauguration of the Exhibition.

During the route, Doña Letizia was especially affectionate with the children and the elderly people, who even spilled some tear for being greeted by the Princess, and also she was expressed smiling when seeing that some neighbors received her with photographs of their daughter, Infanta Leonor, and with gifts for her.

Fifty minutes later, Princes de Asturias acceded to the Cathedral to inaugurate the Ages of the Man and, although its route by the interior of the temple extended during almost two hours, the citizens remained impassible under a sun of justice to say farewell to the representatives of the Royal House.

After taking leave of the locality, the Princes wanted to contemplate to City Rodrigo from the air, since the helicopter in which they traveled flew over the locality before starting off definitively.

Really smile so, can see them are hairs from the happiness of the heart bottom!

 

[Little_star]

I always find the sheer number of people who turn out to see the SRF, whether it's F&L or JC&S amazing. They always seem to happily received by the citizens wherever they go and more importantly are incredibly willing and happy to sepnd time meeting and greeting the people who've waited to see them.

 

[adelaide]

400 metres in 50 minutes it's a lot of time to shake hands, smile, kiss babies and old peoples, as anybody said, the princes are very near people when they make their visit. Plus, the crowd looks very under the charm of the so handsome and busy couple.

It's a true, hard and tiring work. Political peoples sometime do some things like that but only when they prepare election and the spirit is not all the same.

Now it's not possible to say that Felipe is very distant of the people, isen't it ?

I wouldn't say it better
Thanks Elsa!!! I love this hairdo and this outfit, as for me she can recycle it as often as she wants!:

 

[Heidi P.]

This family appears so happy and the Infanta Leonor is so cute. Was it just a rumor that she had some sort of birth mark on her face at birth? I don't see anything now.

 

[adelaide]

Sometimes I feel I'm a little bore repeating how handsome, hardworker and proud fathers are th Princes of Asturias. Sometimes even I think i'm becoming narrow minded ( ) because i'm totaly focus on this young couple confronted to an historical and difficult futur in a very hard political period (national and international) but with arguments totaly irrational as beauty, love and intelligence, and I say in my mind " stop, be carefull, it's not a tv serie "

But, I only have to stop to watch at my computer - particulary at TRF- to see the news pics of them for my mind to start thinking about them.

So, I'm sorry but I can't resist to find once more time Letizia amazing in her coktail dress, to be delighted by the spectacle of Letizia and Felipe so at ease and happy together during their official acts

Thank you very much Elsa M. for the news shots of the PIMEC. We can see the Letizia's dress and hairdo with more details.

Very elegant the both, and the Princes look so radiant that it's a true pleasure to rediscover them at each new event.... and since the Easter Hollydays it's quiet a daily discovering........They have to be very talentuous to maintain the rythm !

 

[zaza61]
