Yes, it's very funy.... We can think now that the Princes are going to have an important debreifing seance with the staff for all the four visites to summarize the best ponts and the least.

In my opinion ( and I'm sharing it ) this experince looks very positive for every body;

For the people because they are not accustom to have the visit of members of the Royal Family;

For the city for itss rename;

For Esperanza Aguirre for her reputation;

For the municipality for its activities

And ....... for the Princes themselves because they are doing a great job!

i love this photo! They look so interested in the children's drawings! You can imagine what they'll be like when Leonor comes home from school with her artwork!

Interesting how Princess Letizia took the same cloth-pattern to every of these visits to the Madrilean municipalities... in these small details we can see a clear statement of how cared all their activities are and how they don't miss any single aspect of their working plan, I would say.

According to El Confidencial, when greeting the 90 people of the occupational centre for handicapped, Princess Letizia told them that her daughter Leonor sent kisses for everybody. Then they heard about their activities (which include cooking) and they tasted an Asturian dessert made by the students. Prince Felipe commented that sometimes the Princess also cooks "arroz con leche" (rice with milk), but then added to his wife: «I'm sorry, but this is better»!

Here's another photo with "uncle Albert" (the founder of the "Ciudad de los Muchachos", from El Confidencial:

I hope that there are more photos of the Princes in the " Ciudad d elos Muchachos (City of the Children) ", I saw the images in television and it was a marvellous visit. It is a city for children problematic, orphans, immigrant .... it works as a city where the children even choose their mayor ... they have town hall, cathedral, school, even their own money and their television...

They were surrounded at all time with children, and it was very nice. It remembered me
the images of last year in Brazil.

Similarly to what happened last week in Alcala de Henares, the Prince of Asturias remembered in Leganés the tragic day of 11-M. The speeches culminated a long day.

In the morning, TRH had a work meeting with the three municipal political parties, from whom the Princes heard about the reality of the municipality, concretely about the integration of immigrant population, school abandonment and alcoholism among young people.

The last stage in the morning of Don Felipe and Doña Letizia took place in a centre to psychic handicapped adults, equipped with a residence and occupational factories, which the Princes inaugurated today.

Later, the institutional retinue went to a hotel to have lunch together with 80 people, among representatives of the municipal business and political parties and other sectors of the Leganés' life.

In the afternoon, the Princes visited the Ciudad de los Muchachos (SEMU), an organization founded in 1970, by Uncle Alberto, with the aim of providing social assistance and education to children belonging to unstructured families. During their stay at the foundation, TRH were presented with a specially enthusiastic reception by the children of the SEMU, whose association is organized like a true city, including a town hall (governed by a 16-years-old African boy), a church, a bar, a radio, a hotel and three districts comprising the residences, as well as a primary school.

Later, the retinue visited the factory of Roche Farma, focoused on cardiovascular and oncologist therapeutic specialties, AIDS, transplant, anaemia and obesity, and which employs a thousand people.

Agreeing with the last act of the Princes of Asturias in Leganés, near one hundred people were concentrated in front of the Municipal Auditorium, shaking Republican flags, along with a more reduced group of representatives from the Neighbors Association of Zarzaquemada, carrying an allusive placard to the irregular practice in the Hospital Severo Ochoa.

Dear Elsa M. What a great foreist ( ? neologism ! ) you are,I'm very found of your work and observations.

For the first point, we can imagine that Letizia must have two pairs and may be more white pants in a same shap because it's very convenient and for her as she is very working it's very hard, it's very usefull to have two or three pieces of very good aticle to wear; the same thing for the input white top, in my opinion a personne so well organized as Letizia must to have many version of one piece than a top when she is outside for one day - to prevent any accident of lunch for example...

For your segond point, this kind of anedocte is making my day, because is too kind and full of tenderness....

Many thanks Elsa M. to share with us your observations

I'm not technically savy -- could someone turn this image into an aviator for me? I just think its a charming image. I'd be very grateful. This is from HOLA.

Nice pictures! Letizia seems very engaging and friendly. She seems to really enjoy her new role. Felipe looks great too!

 

[soCal girl]

As beautiful as Letizia is, the bouquet given to her is stunning! I love the colors, very summery.

35 Threads for Current Events! I bet Felipe and Letizia can't wait for their vacation. Some R & R time for the hard-working couple.
