Default The royal family around the world

I´m in a travelling mood today! Unfortunately its not possible for me to travel around the world today, but one can always dream :)

So why not post as many photos as possible of other people travelling!
But just photos where you can actually see where they are. Like the one of the royal couple at Taj Mahal, Victoria outside the Operahouse in Sydney...

I´m sure there are many such photos!

But I´m sure there are people who can!

The whole royal family spent a wonderful holiday together in Brazil, in 2002. They went down the Amazon river and stayed at Ariaú Jungle Tower close to Manaus. Here´s the hotel! http://www.ariautowers.com/

In December 2003, just before Queen Silvias 60th birthday, the whole family stayed at the famous Ice hotel in Jukkasjärvi in northern Sweden.

The whole hotel is made of ice and because of that, it has to be completely rebuilt every year.

Thank you Yennie for the great photos. They sure have been to some amazing places. My favourite photos are from their visit to the Ice Hotel (how nice would it be to go there?) and the ones from Brazil (they looked like they did some serious hiking or trekking through the jungle, judging from their attire :p).
