As any people who fight to preserve its linguistic identity, the Galician has very strong positions against the Castillian hegemony over the Galician language.

It's kind the same thing as when people say you live in Lisbon, instead of saying you live in Lisboa... Some people are more sensible to these details then others... and of course in the case of the Gallician culture (which has a very strong identity) this may be more evident...

I totally agree, N! ;)

But i think her second outfit could be different. I mean.. more summer.. i cannot explain it quite well. :rolleyes: But i love the first one!
 
JuAnItA - Where did you find the beautiful avatar? I love that picture of the Queen! And although I love the Queen's first outfit -- the color of the second outfit is a bit drab on her. At the same time, she looks great, if hot in the later photos!

I respect the Spanish royal family for recycling, but really, this is the fourth time in about as many weeks that the Queen's worn this outfit. She has averged about once a week for this outfit. Can't she put something else into the mix and wear that outfit say every other week, or gasp! once a month or something? Maybe we can start a game: Guess which day or which act the Queen will wear this exact outfit next week? I am putting my money on next Friday! :p

Queen Sofia carried out the anecdote of the day, since she left the room refrigerated cabin, due to the cold, even in spite the fact that Coren had anticipated for her a quilted vest, in order to mitigate the low temperatures (as opposed to the more than 30 degrees that were felt outside, the room was under 7 degrees of temperature). Consequently, while the King solved his doubts about the different processes from packaging, Doña Sofía waited with other employees and asked them if they didn't feel cold, due to the contrast of temperatures.
