Albert is on a roll, again he looks like a head of state. I sincerely hope he keeps this image up and leaves behind his old ways. Then he will be taken seriously.

Default Meanwhile Back in Monaco
After a triumphant tour of the Orient Prince Albert is back in Monaco and slated to dine with Vaclav Havel of Czechoslavakia and his wife. Havel who has recently written and published a book of 6,000 copies was in Paris to promote it entitled "Briefly Please" Prince Albert is certainly carrying out his duties with the excellence of his stature and ethos.

I know I keep repeating this but it is so refreshing to see him like this. May we continue to see him in this light.

I am pretty certain Albert is scheduled to be in China until the 27th. Which, admittedly, doesn't mean that he hasn't come back but still...

It looks like prince Albert is still in China. Today 04/27 he is visiting Olympic venues in Beijing.

Now come on yes it was before Prince Albert set off for Asia and I stand corrected at eighty years old.

Japan was a triumphant visit.They rarely go bananas over anybody's mother.
They are reserved.So to show that kind of deference to Princess Grace's memory was a triumph of some sort. What was not triumphant about Japan?

Oh my god he is maturing so handsomely. I just love how his complexion harmonized with the China wall and his suit. Gee the photographer is truly an artist and the lighting man, the sun in this case. And the way he sits with his legs apart so inviting. and oh my god what a fabulous painting he is holding on the second picture. He has such good taste for art. So sweet! I just love this man to bits. I wouldn't say he is loosing any weight though. I wonder what he eats. He probably sits alone in the evening, poor thing, yappling on french fries or french toast in front of the TV. Don't they have french food in Monaco?

You are probably right. It is three hot meals a day and Creme Brulee and Tarte au chocolat every night.

IMO, PA needs seriously to start watching what he is eating. He is starting to look little too chubby. We all know that at his age fat doesn't come off easy. He should hit the gym more often as well. I think six pack would fit him much nicer then one pack.
