I was going through my files this morning and found these pictures which I believe were never posted.
They are from Felipe and Letizia's stroll around Mallorca last year.
Those photos are from August 2004, when they strolled by San Vicente de la Barquera (Asturias).

I was looking at their activities page at casareal.es to see if any new engagements had been posted and their activities for tomorrow are no longer posted. Did they cancel tomorrows engagements?

I guess Felipe will be solo at those engagements, since they were removed from their joint schedule and from Letizia's schedule, but still are at Felipe's, although it's written there that Letizia will attend

they went to have dinner with the managers of a newspaper. as it was a private dinner maybe they were letizia's friends.
 
the article is translated from google. They are not friends of Letizia, is a group of political journalists who by the sight meet with different personalities.




Princes de Asturias the journalists of the Chronic group would sinceran themselves, that includes to fifteen commentators of all the tendencies and companies, and that has already fulfilled their silver wedding like group - the only one that survive the times of the transition shared their weekly lunch with Princes de Asturias, who put to those veterans of the political chronicle in the pocket. The Prince did not doubt in speaking of all the questions that presented/displayed to him, even most delicate, like for example the future of the monarchy and the tensions that are lived at the moment in the scene of the policy, whereas Doña Leticia had to respond mainly to questions related to the adaptation to her new life, as well as related to the birth of the their next son or daughter. The members of the group have kept their habitual silence, are conceited of which their weekly lunches "do not exist", but are counted some anecdotes. For example, that the Princess takes to regulate her pregnancy, with frequent and very annoying nauseas; that Doña Letizia feels like a privileged person by the political family who has touched to him in luck, to which added the Prince who he also considers a privileged person to have the political family whom he has, and who both is enthusiastic of the cinema and that they escape as soon as they can. There it differs as far as sorts, to Don Felipe like "the difficult" films, of thesis, before which Doña Letizia yields and finishes in empty rooms average where films of minority public project. However Don Felipe is less becoming fond of to the opera that its wife, who always is arranged to take the Real one. What it was clear is that Princess de Asturias has passed page completely: it does not miss the media, although before each official trip it appears with "tocho" of cuts or pages of Internet that gives to its husband to study it together. And one more an anecdote: Doña Letizia, to whom she pleases to eat of everything and she has very good tooth, during the trip of fiancès even dared with fried cockroaches that she bought in a street position. The Prince did not want nor to watch it while he proved what he assumed was a exquisitez.

The Princes of Asturias will travel next week to Washington, where they will attend the students’ graduation of the Master on International Affairs of the University of Georgetown, the same one where Don Felipe studied 10 years ago.

The Prince will be one of the protagonists of the ceremony, since he will pronounce a speech of half an hour.

Diplomatic sources in the American capital explained to EFE that the Princes will arrive in Washington on Friday 20th, and they shall have a private dinner with the authorities of the University. On Saturday 21st, at 5:00 p.m. local time (21:00 GMT), they shall go to the campus of Georgetown, to participate in the graduation acts that will take place in the gardens of the campus or, in case it rains, at the McDonough Arena of the University.

This is their second visit to the prestigious University to Georgetown. Last October, the Prince introduced his wife to the place where he had studied during two years, and the couple, mixed with the numerous students, took then a walk by the gardens of the campus.

Don Felipe took in Georgetown a Master Degree in International Affairs, specialization on East-West Relations since the II World War, Economy in the less developed countries, Ibero-America and Asia.

Will his speech be aired anywhere? I would wanna hear his speech...it would probably be interesting.
 
The Princess will not accompany Don Felipe to Georgetown


MADRID. Her Height Real Prince de Asturias will travel single the next Friday to Washington in the evening to preside over Saturday a ceremony of graduation in the University of Georgetown, since Doña Letizia will not be able to accompany to him as a result of her pregnancy. As soon as this ceremony finishes, that will be at dawn of Sunday in Spain, Don Felipe will return to Madrid to be able to celebrate with its in private familiar wife and the first anniversary of its wedding. Initially it was predicted that the Princess accompanied to the Heir by Corona the ceremony by graduation by the students by the School by the Outer Service of the University of Georgetown, in which also studied Don Felipe. This it is the second trip that suspends the Princess in the occasion of its pregnancy. First the visit of yesterday to Teruel went, where Don Felipe inaugurated III the World-wide Congress of the Jamón, visited "Dinópolis" and took a walk by "the Oval". At the moment, Doña Letizia hopes to be able to travel to Japan to first of June.

The Princes of Asturias received yesterday the Socialist Youths, on an similar meeting to the one they had last Monday with the Youths of the Popular Party. Don Felipe and Doña Letizia talked with all of them and were presented with the individual standards of the organization, who informed the Princes of its projects.

In the morning, the Princes had also met a representation of the Press Association of Spanish Periodic Publications.



Besides, and without the company of the Princess, Don Felipe received in the morning the 44th promotion of the Fiscal Career, and, in the evening, before the meeting with the Youths of PSOE, Prince Felipe received a representation of the students belonging to the Balboa Program for young Latin American journalists.
 
the article is translated from google. They are not friends of Letizia, is a group of political journalists who by the sight meet with different personalities.
Here's the link to the article, for those who can read it in Spanish:
http://www.ociocritico.com/oc/actual/canales/diario/alternativo/050518alternativo_3.php

It's a very interesting article. I've tried to translate it again (human translation is always something better than google... even when the translator is as bad as I am;) ):

The journalists of the group Crónica (that includes fifteen commentators of all the tendencies and companies) shared their weekly lunch with the Princes of Asturias, who litteraly put all those veterans of political chronicle in their pocket.

The Prince did not doubt in speaking of all the questions that were presented to him, even the most delicate ones, like the future of the monarchy and the tensions that are lived at the moment in politics, whereas Doña Letizia answered mainly to questions related to the adaptation to her new life, as well as to her pregnancy.

The members of the group kept their usual silence, concerning their weekly lunches, but they told some anecdotes. For example, that the Princess is taking her pregnancy with normality, with frequent and very annoying nauseas; that Doña Letizia feels like a privileged person for the political family she had received (to which the Prince added that he also considers himself as a privileged person for having the political family he has); that both of them are enthusiastic fans of cinema, and that they always watch movies as soon as they can. While Don Felipe enjoys difficult (intellectual?) films, Doña Letizia prefers those which usually get empty rooms, i.e. movies of minority publics. Besides, Don Felipe is less fond of opera than his wife, who’s always eager to take him to the Royal theatre.

What was clear is that the Princess of Asturias has definitely turned the page over; she doesn’t miss working in the media, although, before each official trip, she always appears with tons" of staff or pages from Internet, which she gives to her husband, so that they can study them together. And one more anecdote: Doña Letizia (who likes to eat everything, as she is a very good gourmet) dared herself to eat fried cockroaches that she bought in a street, during their honeymoon. The Prince did not even watch her, while she was proving what he assumed to be an oddity.
