[HMQueenElizabethII]

Which Royals will attend Paralympics Games in September?I have just only known Princess Martha Louise of Norway will attend.

Edward, Earl of Wessex will attend the opening ceremony and stay the week. The British engagements don't have Sophie accompanying him though.

Oh,it 's pity.I hope that i can see Sophie with him.

im wishes Earl and Countess of Wessex would allowed going Greece to support British! but i think Sophie would dont bring her baby because her baby have vision problems since Lady Louise was born or she would bring down if she would bring with nanny when Earl and Countess of Wessex been watching games.

im sure i hope so Prince William will attend soon! i cant wait!

I must admit that this Olmpics and Paralympics have been greatly supported by the Royals. Do you think they got together and co-ordinated?

Her Royal Highness Grand-Duchess Maria Teresa of Luxembourg invited handicaped children during the Paralympic games in Athens on Friday 17th September 2004 for a visit to the ancient and famous Acropolis. The children were transported by a special bus especially coming from Luxembourg to Athens equipped with a lift for wheelchairs. The Grand-Duchess was admired for Her initiative by all the other Royal families attending the Paralympic games.

Sorry Johanna, the caption at eastnews didn´t say more than "Königin Silvia von Schweden, Behindertensport, Paralympics"...I´ve no idea where and when it was made, and who the athlete is.
