The other six nephews and nieces obviously have a great relationship but the Asturias girls are rarely around although Irene and Leonor are the same age. Felipe is Victoria's godfather, would have been nice to see the younger generation spend time at the beach together incl children.

Victoria and Froilan live in Madrid, they probably see Felipe and Letizia all the time. Moreover, why is it always assumed that if there's a rift it's on Felipe's side, Cristina is the one wh looks like thunder most of the time....
Personally I thought the reason for this being a more low-key holiday was down to Elena and Jaime's separation. Otherwise the photographers and paparrazi would have been hassling her and the children.

I don't think there's much animosity between the kids, anyway. For instance, we have seen Froilan and Victoria holding Leonor's hands at least twice, at the ice show and at last year's photoshoot. Miguel was playing with Leonor on the boat last year, and we saw Juan play with Leonor at the photoshoot and jiggle little Sofia's foot, and at Christmas he had his arm around Leo, and at Easter he kissed Sofia and patted her head. So, I would not say that the children dislike each other.

  King Juan Carlos has a soft spot for his Urdangarin grandchildren! And how cute to see Miguel with his arm around his Grandfather´s shoulders!

Do you think the Royal Couple is going to cancel their vacations and return to Madrid after the horrible Plane Crash at Madrid Airport?

Yes I am absolutely shocked! Now they say it's around 150 people ... My prayers and thoughts are with the families of those who were at the wrong place at the wrong time ... anybody could have been in their position, absolutely terrifying! It's a national tragedy, I guess the SRF will come together soon as any other Head of State would do in the same situation. It reminds me of the concorde desaster, a similar tragedy where 113 people died in 2000.

I am sure that their majesties will be very present for the survivors and families of the victims of this terrible tragedy.

Next Friday the Kings will say goodbye of the authorities of Balearics with the traditional dinner in the Palace of the Almudaina that puts final point to the summer stay of the Royal Family in Palma.

Letizia looks quite tan. I thought one wouldn't have gone for sunbathing after the operation. I saw her on TV, overall I don't see much of the impact of her new nose (which is not a bad news), perhaps improve her profile a bit. I'm not too fond of the clothes, esp. Sofia's and Elena's.
