thanks for the article lula!

so, haakon and mette marit are also there? since they are all good friends with cristina and rosario it's understandable, and no one would say no to a sunny weekend at majorca. do you think we will see them all hanging out in a yatch or having a walk? :)

Already I have seen that you have seen the photos in the forum of Hakoon and Mette Marit. I do not believe that we see to ALL TOGETHER, it is complicated, that they could move all without calling the attention. In The Holy Week it is not in the habit of being very habitual that sail in the yacht because they are very a few days and is not in the habit of being worth starting the ship.
Already we will see, I imagine that it will depend on the weather. Probably go to the cinema how last year or to the marine zoo. It is what they are in the habit of doing.

yes! just had a look in the norwegian forum to see if there were any photos... and the great surprise was that there were tons of them.
i'm sorry to be insistant, but perhaps you, lula, know about when the princes are coming to majorca. anything being said in spain? any rumours about leonor coming? i'm not anymore there so i'm quite confused with the royal informations.

It is not known. Another day was copy an article in the one that was commenting that already they were in Palm. But if they are there scarcely they have gone out of house or one has not seen them. The one who does know?
The certain thing is that the pink press has been very occupied lately because there is many news, and how it has many news they do not speculate on the Princes. The only thing for that they wait is that they show Leonor. But not how they are going to do it. It seems that the Princes are troublesome for all the polemics that certain press raises around the girl.
Besides, the press protests for everything. If a paparazzi manages to do photos to the girl, the others protest because they do not have the photos. If they pose with the girl, they protest because they all have the same photos.
Do what they do always there is someone who criticizes them though it is for the most absurd thing, and I imagine that they do not like anything that it happens when it is a question of topics on the girl that she is only a baby of 5 months.
The press and the people want to see the girl, and I imagine that we see her in some occasion these days, but who knows when.

what i was reading just now is that they have an even in palma the 18th, so i assume they are definetely going to be there for the easter mass on sunday. and perhaps they may not take leonor to mass, but i would assume they may pose with her for a little bit (just as what they did in lanzarote), since they are not going to leave the baby alone with nannies in madrid, also taking into account that all the royal family is in palma. let's hope... :)

i guess the best thing to do would be to release official photos, just as frederik and mary did once (with ocassion of the first month of christian) or to pose regularly for photographers as willem alexander and maxima. that way the baby is not disturbed (i wouldn't feel comfortable with exposing a baby to so many obsessed photographers) and they can be a little bit less pressurised to show leonor.

What happens is that nothing of it seems to work with the Spanish press, always it has determined persons, who are in the habit of being the same, that protest and create polemics.
When Leonor was born they did the photos to the exit of the Clinic, and stopped to go on to the whole press that wanted. Later they distributed a few official photos ... and some of them protested because there was no other one put.
Later there were the photos of the mall, how it made them a journalist of newspaper, the pink press created a polemic.
Then they posed in Lanzarote, and how the images were beautiful some devoted themselves to criticize the jeans of Leonor.
In the baptism, the photos were done by the public Spanish agency of news (how it had happened with all the previous baptisms), and also they criticized it.

When Leonor was born some serious journalists commented that the intention of the Princes was to be left to see with the girl approximately once a month, in order that the press was calm. What happens is that from December they have devoted themselves to create polemics on the girl, firstly all the books that they wrote and the speculations on the childbirth and the health of the girl, later all kinds of absurd critiques in the baptism, the topic of the umbilical cord, and the angioma (with that news of the operation).
Every polemic lasted several weeks. Hereby it seems to be impossible that the Princes could pose with the girl, without certain press turns it into a new polemic. Because of it I understand that they are angry with this situation or that enclosed it they could not like to submit their girl to it.

Ariel, Marivent is a property, is a palace like Zarzuela, but in Mallorca.
I think that they are all together, but im not sure.


I agree with you Lula, every time that the Princes posed with Leonor,journalis made a polemic, an estupid polemic just for fill the contens of Tv programs. For that reason the princes don,t want to pose with Leonor.
Its my opinion

Marivent is a palace with a wide enclosure green and surrounded with a wall that there belongs to the Government of the Balearic Islands, who it yields the Royal Family (Balearics it is a tourist place and for them it is beneficial that the Royal Family spends there their vacations). Marivent's Palace is the principal building, and Sont Vent's building that also was in the enclosure recovered as housing for the Prince. Also they have constructed two small houses for the Infantas.

Many thanks to those of you who take the time to reaserch for photos and information and share it with us. Seems like the SRF spends a much more "low profile" when they are in Palma de Mallorca.

In Spain it is celebrated more the Holy Week than that of Easter. This year the children began their school vacations last Friday and they conclude them on Monday of Easter (It is years in which the Holy Week is celebrated very soon and the school vacations begin on the Holy Wednesday and follow the whole week Easter). In Spain it is a holiday tomorrow, on Holy Friday, and in some communities also on Monday of Easter.
By tradition in Spain it is celebrated the Holy Week and there are hundreds of processions in the whole country.


It seems that today there are neither news nor photos, is Holy Friday and is a holiday so it will have to wait. It is supposed that today the Deliver of Prizes of the Ditch Princess Sofia already we will see this night if it comes or not someone of the Royal Family.
