Lucys, I think she has looked "good" in the past but I do think I've never seen her more "contented" looking -- especially around Cristina and Felipe and their families. I saw her in person the day she and Juan Carlos were reinstated on the throne and I thought she was absolutely beautiful -- much, much prettier than photos of her.
The children are adorable and growing so fast, the Queen looks very content and happy surrounded by her grandchildren but lets not forget the Duke of Palma, who still is handsome and in great shape

Wow! Thanks everyone who has posted all these fantastic photos. :)
And according with the newspaper Canarias 7, today, Infanta Cristina has sailed with her Azur de Puig crew for the first time in this summer.
Queen Sofía, Iñaki Urdangarín and her children, has been encouraged her from the “Sommni” which was following the Azur de Puig during all the regatta time.
Tonight, the Kings will preside the delivery of trophies. The Royal House hasn't confirmed yet if the Princes of Asturias will attend the ceremony.
And finally, here some pics from today, when it has taking place the last regatta in this Summer of 2005.

Yes, they have gained the Lexus in Transpac and the CAM in IMS500. Sincerely, though the journalists will do a drama I do not believe that it matters for the prince in excess.
From Nwescom:
King Juan Carlos of Spain arrives in the Mallorca Real Club Nautico to meet his new boat Bribon's crew and then participates to the final stage of the 24th King's Cup sailing race. The King is back from a short journey in Saudi Arabia. Mallorca, SPAIN - 07/08/2005

"Contented" is a better description. And don't misunderstand, I have always found her a beautiful woman, but what I most like about her is her innate dignity, completely free of any airs of grandeur.
Do you know when this prize giving ceremony will take place? I know that today, but when? I wander if F&L will attend and where they spent time after leaving Palma on Wednesday? It's quite certain, that they didn't go to Asturias, so maybe they go to the other, not so popular and crowded Balearic Islands, like Minorca or Formentera?

The delivery of trophies was today at 9 p.m., but it was not known if the Princes were going to come or not. The journalists were those who said that on Wednesday they went away of Palm and that they had gone to Asturias. To Asturias they have not gone, so it seems to me that only they know where they are. The journalists do not know very much.
Kings preside at delivery of trophies the XXIVth Copa del Rey
The Kings have presided this night in the Castle of Bellver at the act of delivery of trophies to the winning ships in the Glass XXIV of the King of Candle, who from Monday has been disputed in the bay of Palm.

The Princes of Asturias left Palm on Wednesday, with I destine to an unknown place, on which the House of the King supports the most absolute silence, motivate for which they were not this night in the delivery of trophies.

The Duchess of Palm gathered the hand trophy of the King, accompanied by all her companions of crew, and with the presence between the public of her husband, Iñaki Urdangarín, and of her three children males: Juan, Pablo and Miguel.
