I really wonder:
Does the King and the Queen not get tired from so many trips the last time.
I have a feeling that they travel each day.
They take the plain each day.

Do they have time for them private life and them children?
 
True! (When I travel I need to sleep for a whole day so I can recover;),)I guess they do consider it's their job to put Jordan on the agenda with the rest of the world so they keep working hard:neutral:
in one of her interviews she mentioned that it's "a tough balancing act"

Queen Rania vists Ajloun

Ajloun, Dec. 5 (Petra)-- Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah visited citizens of Ajloun, Tuesday, where she toured several social development projects, encouraged the efforts of the civil society's activism in the area, and had lunch with members of the community.

While enjoying a meal with some members of the community, Queen Rania praised the advancement in Ajloun over the past few years. The social development projects, she said, are serving to benefit the community and the creation of other types of projects in the future will hopefully serve to create more work opportunities for the youth.

Thanks for the pictures.
Strange outfit in my opinion, but her face and her hair look beautiful.
 
Thanks for the photos, I love the blouse that Rania was wearing yesterday but the small blue jackt/cardigan over it really wasn't necessary.
 
Actually I thought Rania looked like a mess. The skirt reminds me of women in there 50's, the top with the bow is okay if she had worn it without the sweater/jacket , with that just makes it look wrong. The long sleeve tops with a shorter jacket/sweater is not in fashion anymore.The whole outfit does not match imo. She looks good (make-up wise)
 
I agree her outfit is very unfortunate. The colour of the blouse does not go with the colour of the skirt, the sweater looks odd over that shirt and the bag doesn't match any of it. It seems that when Rania is styled for official occasions, her look is much more successful than when she is (probably) left to her own devices.

The long sleeve/short sleeve thing is still around on the catwalks, I remember seeing it at 2006 Autumn/Winter shows. Cannot recall the designer though.

I don't understand what you mean? This is an official occasion, it's one of her offiical events, so if she has a stylist (I'm not sure if she does anymore) then she would have helped with this outfit.

By official occasion I mean official trips abroad, official visits from people abroad, gala evenings and dinners, etc. Of course, almost everything she does is official in some way or another but I don't think that if she still has a stylist, she would consult her stylist on a daily basis as to what to wear to every single thing she attends. I would assume if she is going on say a state visit, she will discuss with an expert how to put together her outfits, what to wear and when and with what.
 
Queen visits model community development project

WADI RUM/DISSEH (Petra) — Her Majesty Queen Rania visited a development project in the southern area of Disseh on Saturday where residents, in cooperation with civil society organisations, have established a modern olive presser.
In a meeting between the Queen and community leaders, President of the Social Development Centres Society Seri Nasser said the two-year-old project was the outcome of “an effective partnership among the residents of the Qweira District, about 300km south of Amman.”
Nasser noted that residents of Tweissa, Ghal and Mneisheer villages, represented in the Al Hussein Cooperative Society, are now running the presser, which has saved local farmers JD70,000 a year as they no longer have to travel to pressers in Maan and other regional towns.
. . . Queen Rania also visited the girls’ school in Wadi Rum village and the Barada Ladies Society, where 67 women make rugs, embroidery and olive oil soap. Jordan Times
