It is hoped that the whole square will be ready by 26 November when the King of Spain, Juan Carlos, begins his State Visit to Malta.
 
King Juan Carlos spoke in favour of the Madrid 2016 bid.
He has a wonderful voice and sounded very sincere and passionate.
 
Queen Sofia really does spend alot of time with her family, which I find nice.
 
Is it part of protocol to dress very formally as in uniform and not just in a suit for receiving new ambassadors?

The delivery of Credentials is an act with very much protocol, is one of few acts that in Spain preserves all its protocol. The King and the members of the delegations, who come to Palace in coach from the State Department, must go dress of gala.
