The Prince is very handsome. That pain that has not been able to go Letizia..

 

[Elsa M.]

Here's the rest of the translation of the article posted by LaChicaMadrileña, at another thread:

http://www.abc.es/abc/pg051022/prensa/noticias/Cultura/Cultura/200510/22/NAC-CUL-112.asp

When the members of the Donostiarra Orpheum asked, last Thursday, for the state and the spirits of Doña Letizia, Don Felipe answered: "the Princess is very sad for not being able to come to Oviedo, but she is good, very good indeed. You cannot imagine how much she misses not being here".

And the Ovetense people have overturned all their affection, to try to console these days the "solitude" of the Prince. During the exhibition "21 Meninas", of Manolo Valdés, Don Felipe was presented with a true bath of multitudes. Among applauses and cheers, the Prince narrowed the hands and the soul of the people of Oviedo that were gathered to affectionately show their babies to him, who caressed them all. The deception of people of Asturias for the absence of the Princess did not reduce nor an apex of affection and heat demonstrated by the town towards its Princes. The compliments were constantly shouted everywhere by several choirs of women, saying "Handsome, handsome!!" with hysteria.


P.S. - No wonder...

Although Letizia must be absolutely thrilled about her and Felipe's baby she must be heartbroken to not be able to accompany her husband to the awards in her home town. She must be very close to giving birth for her doctor to not let her travel.

Don Felipe in Porrúa: " I Admire your pride of being at the same time Asturian and Spanish "

The inheritor of the Wreath informed, relaxed, in the local activities in the delivery of the prize the exemplary village, where he highlighted the " difficult ways of the emigration "

Porrúa (Llanes), V. MONTES / E. LAGAR

The Prince of Asturias, don Felipè, effected in Porrúa (Llanes), " exemplary Village " of 2005, one sense honoring to the emigration. But he started the plaudits when he qualified of "admirably" the double identity of the Asturians, tied to their land and also to Spain. " It is admirable to think that the valleys and mountains of Asturias (...), that seem to be done to isolate, have served you, on the other hand, to go out to the search of other distant lands and, simultaneously, to join, to create this solid conscience of being at the same time, with logical pride, Asturians and Spanish ", affirmed in hisspeech don Felipe before hundreds of porruanos and persons come from other points of the region.

One more year, the Prince took part, relaxed and enterteining, in the activities prepared by the neighbors of the locality and almost he might say that one greeted one to the attendees. The one that did not have hand squeeze was because he did not look for it. He crossed the alleys of the village, played the skittle palm and was interested for Porrúa's oral traditions and the problems of the ranchers.
He remembered the emigrant past of this land of Indians of the Asturian east. Porrúa has been a scene from the XVIIIth century of trips to another side of the Atlantic Ocean, affirmed in his speech the mayor of Llanes, Dolores Álvarez. An emigration " heart-breaking, traumatic often and not always with happy end ", added the mayor pedáneo of Porrúa, Luis Antonio Noriega. But that gave as fruit the helps of the Indians, who have forged the print of the locality: several buildings were constructed by the money sent by the emigrants and the estate "Llacín", where one finds the Ethnographic Museum of the East, it was donated by a family porruana emigrated to Mexico.
There it raises impressively and majestic avocado, of almost a century of age. " It symbolizes the values that you preserve as your better exchequer, simultaneously that all that him makes a detour speaks to us about the sweetness of the beautiful landscape llanisco that with so much love your poets sang ", don Felipe affirmed in his speech.
The inheritor of the Wreath emphasized that the ways of the emigration " have been very long and difficult, but they have never driven to the uprooting ". Numerous returned emigrants were listening between the public and, later, in the local luncheon, they received the affectionate greeting of don Felipe.

The day had dawned sunny in Porrúa and it developed under the continuous recollection of the Princess of Asturias, dona Letizia pregnancy of eight months. The improvement of the highway of access to the village, incomplete because of the recent strike of the transport, remained by half in some sections. It was not important to dress of party. The sound of the band of bagpipes "Llacín" announced the arrival of the Prince of Asturias accompanied of diverse authorities (the president of the Principality, Vicente Álvarez Areces; the chairwoman of the Meeting, Maria Jesus Álvarez; the delegate of the Government, Antonio Trevín; the president of the Foundation Prince, Jose Ramon Álvarez Rendueles, and the mayor of Llanes, Dolores Álvarez).

At the entry of the village they began the regards, then don Felipe moved to the covered bowling alley, opposite to the college, where he was present at a demonstration of skittle palm. After in Navelgas (Tineo), " Exemplary village " 2003, don Felipe was daring to face the Celtic skittle, all the attendees were waiting for a wink of the Prince of Asturias. And this way she was: he threw and did so many people, between the plaudit of the public.
A quiet trek afoot, sowed with lifted hands looking for the tact of the Prince, he drove to the procession up to the Ethnographic Museum of the East. There don Felipe visited the buildings of the environment and knew several exhibitions. He signed in the book of honor and received the emblems of the Foundation of the museum.
He crossed again the village, between regards to children, small conversations and nice gestures towards whom a photography wanted to be done by the inheritor. In the zone known as The Park, the group folclórico of San Justo and San Pastor interpreted for the Prince the dance of the pericote.
Later the royal procession walked to the watering place for farm animals of the locality, unequivocal symbol of the out-standing cattle activity of the zone, historically trashumante. Don Felipe observed a concentration of animals, singularly cows casinas, of the race of the Asturian ones of the mountain. A group of ranchers him transmitted their worries before the hurts caused by the wolves.

His godson says that Felipe " is not nervous " for his paternity

" He is not nervous ", was commented by him yesterday in Porrúa. Felipe Lopez, the Asturian godson of the Prince of Asturias on having been asked about the imminent paternity of his royal godfather.
Since providing that he comes to between gar the prizes that take his name, Don Felipe had a moment for his godson. The Prince received him yesterday of tomorrow in the Hotel of the Reconquest, but later the young man and his parents were putting course to Porrúa to follow between the public the acts of delivery to the Prize to the Exemplary Village.

" We speak about my notes, about the college and about the family ", comments Felipe Lopez when one asks him about the meeting with his godfather. His presence in Porrúa is logical since the life of this young man who in December will expire 15 years has much that to see with this prize. In 1990 in San Esteban of Cuñaba, the first Exemplary Village of Asturias, the Prince knew a young couple for that they was waiting for their first baby. They were going to be call him Felipe and he ended up by being supported by the Royal Inheritor.
