I wonder if he is going to visit his wives cousin Max of Baden and his lovely wife Archduchess Valeria. I believe the Badens are rather close to the Spanish royals (compared to other RF), the were invited to the wedding of the Pirnce of Asturias for example and HM Queen Sofia attended the wedding of Prince Bernhard of Baden to Stefanie Kaul. But maybe he prefers to visit his friend The Duchess of Wurttemberg (or he will fly home immediately of course).
Didn't Queen Sofia go to school in Baden-Baden btw? In the school founded by the father of Prince Max?
