Queen Paola has been out of the public eye lately. I do hope she is okay. Maybe just taking a well deserved rest!

According the official website of the Belgian monarchie [Monarchie.be] she has at least two [public] engagements this year. On December 13th the yearly Christmas concert of the Queen Paola foundation and December 18th the presentation of the certificates of the "Muziekkapel Koningin Elisabeth” at Waterloo.

And [almost] every year the palace organizes a Christmas concert in December. So I think we can still expect some pictures of Queen Paola this year.

I hope for pictures with the whole Royal Family and a proud "nonni" Queen Paola.

A Belgian Royal Family holiday photo would be lovely.

So nice to see Her Majesty again--she looks lovely as always.
Is there typically a concert where we see the entire royal family. I seem to remember something last year. I recall a photo of the Princesses Elisabeth, Louise and Laetitia Maria all holding hands? I thought it was a holiday concert?

Her Majesty looks lovely. We haven't seen her in a while. She looks rested.
I adore seeing her with children. She really has the touch of a grandma with them!

Does anyone know how the King is feeling?

Much to do about the Kings views that leaked out:

Quote:
Wed 13/02/08 - "King Albert wants a new federal constituency. He is suspicious of Prime Minister-in-waiting Yves Leterme and believes his Flemish nationalist ally N-VA poses a danger to the Belgian state". All these claims have been made in the daily De Standaard recently.



The only conclusion can be that leading politicians have been telling reporters what the king said to them.

Nice to see the King out again! Does this mean that his period of obligatory rest is over now and the King has recovered completely from the surgery had this fall?

Did they also visit Radio Dona? I watched them on television yesterday morning and the DJ said she was nervous as the King would be paying them a visit later during the day.

Yes they also visited the radio, also the studio where the preselections for "the eurovision songcontest" are and the news studios
