Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia, Current Events Part 14: October 2005 - Feb. 2006

Fantastic pics! And finally we can see Leonor's eyes! What a cutie!

Very nice pictures of Felipe and Leonor. Very sweet

I have a question, is Felipe and Leonor not allowed in the same car, it does not look like she is in the car with them, or maybe we just cant see her. It also seems like there are 2 security cars behind them. Will Felipe and Leonor be able to go on a plane together? In Norway Haakon and the King never goes together but he often flies and drives with his daughter.

In Spain the King and the Prince do not travel together either, nor come to many united acts except when it is strictly necessary.
In case of Leonor, and she is a baby and the logical thing is that she travels with her parents, she is the daughter of the inheritor still, in the future it will change.

In this picture, we can see "something" at the back seat, which has the same pattern as Leonor's baby car... but I'm not sure.

It is a shame that 'only there are these photos, in television only they have put the same photos though a bit extended by computer. The journalists and photographers always protesting and when they have to be rapid they do not appear. They all had to be preparing itself to enjoy of the days of rest.

It will be necessary to expect a next week, to see if some magazine has some another photo.

For these pictures I could risk saying that Leonor's pram is of the kind with a detachable seat that is also a car seat. Very practical for when the baby is sleeping (a friend of mine told me that buying a pram like these was a really smart decision, because you can take the baby out and put the baby in the car without having to wake it up )

A Christmas pajamas for Leonor

The salesmen of the different establishments of the mall Moraleja Green met on Wednesday a surprise certification: the visit of the Princes of Asturias, who decided to pass the evening of purchases with their daughter Leonor. Don Felipe and Dona Letizia came to this great surface about a quarters of four and used approximately two hours in snooping round some shops of the second floor of the orange building. They went on neither to another building (the green one) of this Alcobendas's mall (Madrid) nor to any other floor. They realized the first stop in La Oca, a company of decoration of which the Princess " is clienta habitually from before marrying ". There Don Felipe and his wife were interested for some carpets and blankets for the sofa, but finally what they acquired they were four red cushions that will adorn someone of the stays with their house of the Zarzula. While the saleswomen were showing catalogues to the royal couple, the small Leonor was sleeping placidly in her cart. " she had the closed eyes, but she is beautiful ", commented one of the saleswomen.

The personnel of Massimo Dutti had more luck, since while Dona Letizia was amusing herself looking at articles in the part dedicated to feminine mode, Don Felipe was waiting sat with his daughter in arms in the gentleman's part. " The girl is spectacular, the the most prettiest ", commented to our newspaper one of the sellers of the shop, which also assured that the Princes, finally, did not buy anything.
Though they were interested for several establishments of complements and leatherwork - as Acosta and Boch-, and for the trinkets of the French company Agatha, Don Felipe and Dona Letizia did not acquire any article in these shops either.

The great surprise took place when the Princes and their daughter entered Zara with all their bodyguard's retinue and went directly to the children's part. " A great commotion was formed, but we are accustomed, since hereabouts famous many people pass ", one of the saleswomen said of Inditex's major division. After asking for permission, first to you them escort and later, for indication of these, to Don Felipe, the saleswomen could see closely Leonor. " They are charming and they left us to see the girl, who is more rubita and has the eyes of her father ", explained one of the employees, the same one who attended to Dona Letizia when there chose a pajamas of two pieces, of the height 1 to 3 months, with red trousers and white vest with a Noel's drawing. Dona Letizia paid in cash 11,90 Euros that the pajamas cost. It yes, it is hundred for hundred of cotton.

Ángel Barrera Cruz (known in his town as Betis) rendered a special tribute to the Princes of Asturias, by sending them a picture of their wedding along with a patchwork. His surprise was enormous however, when, a couple of weeks ago, he received a letter, thanking his presents. Barrera took advantage of the occasion to ask Don Felipe and Doña Letizia to visit Melilla, if the agenda allows it, since he would love to be able to share a while with them.

this is so funny...



from getty
Barcelona, SPAIN: A ceramic figurine of Spain's Prince Felipe and his wife Princess Letizia called a caganer is seen at the Santa Llucia Fair in Barcelona, 08 December 2005. Statuettes of well-known people defecating are a strong Christmas tradition in Catalonia, dating back to the 18th century as Catalonians hide caganers in Christmas Nativity scenes and invite friends to find them. The figures symbolize fertilization, hope and prosperity for the coming year.

 

[LaChicaMadrilena]

Defecating people- sign of hope and prosperity!!! Ok, why not, different country, different culture

 

[carlota]

i think the photo of the figures is quite old, from the first christmas after the announcement.

leonor's pijama is cute... it's a pity we can't see it better.

 

[lula]

They are only typical in the region of Catalonia, every region has its customs.

Leonor also has her. Here you have a video

The Princes have already begun to send their Christmas cards, in which they appear with little Leonor, and they have received with humor the use of their figures like traditional caganers, that fertilize the Earth.

how soon can we see the cards? i'm glad they include little Leonor.
i'm getting anxious..
i remembered last years card is a good one, so hope the same or even better this year.

 

[LaChicaMadrilena]

Will we see this postcard?! Hope we will have another one with the Kings and their children, including two little girls

 

[LaChicaMadrilena]

Do you know, when the Chrismas Card with Leonor and her parents or the one with the Kings and their grandchildren will be released? Perhaps it's not known at the moment, but maybe it will be similar like in the previous years? Can't wait!

if i'm not mistaken, the Princes of Asturias released a New Year's Card, which became available for us to see on December 29, 2004. but i don't know whether the similar thing will happen this year.
The Kings / Royal Family Christmas Card released a bit earlier, on December 22nd, so we got few more days to wait...

 

[LaChicaMadrilena]

Thanks purple platinum.

That of the Princes was also a letter of congratulation of Christmas, in Spain the Christmas is congratulated and the New Year. The only official one that appears and the web is that of the Kings, I believe that of the Princes that last year they did not put it but it appeared in the magazines. I imagine that this week we will see them because already almost all envoys will be and always there is some magazine that obtains them. We will not have to wait very much.

Already I read it, the only thing that he does is to gather the rumor that circulated along Internet a few weeks ago of which Letizia wanted to have an own office, correct it and increase it. And for his position, in his misogynous line, to say that Letizia manipulates her husband.
It of always we go. Quite very logical bearing in mind that is the only princess who does not do acts in solitarily and who daughter has had to choose as godfathers of her her fathers-in-law ... her power is evident.

 

[nayralorenzo]

Why stupid? I think he is right...she can not make such changes in the house..she is only the wife of the prince..she has to wait to be queen to make these things.
I hope the card too.

The problem is that she is not trying to make such changes... all it's happening is that she will have a person to help her with her own secretary issues... And the whole other thing is just a product of his fertile imagination

 

[Anna_R]

Something tells me that the picture of the card will be one of those we haven't seen from Leonor's presentation.

I don't think that they had a new photoshoot, but you never know, as last year's card came as a complete surprise...

aaww... i really hope not..
i want it to be like last year's setting.. wearing semi-casual clothes on outdoor setting.. less informal but sweet & romantic..

But, according to the reports at the time, they DID take photographs outside with Leonor.

I want to be wrong, after all a baby changes so much in a month, but I have a strong feeling that I'm right (let's hope not!)

 

[lula]

Bear in mind that the cards of Christmas send before they begin the holidays, as what at the beginning of December probably already they had to have the photos to prepare the cards and to go sending them. Let's hope that they are generous and with the postcards of Christmas they give us some another photography.
