What a shame. If I had known this visit was happening I would have gone picture hunting.

 

[Her_Majesty]

Oh they are very busy!

Did the Royal Couple return to Jordan the last days or did they stay in the Netherlands before they went to England??

 

[polysciir]

I guess they have a very busy schedule, I wonder what are some of the events being hosted for them in this visit.

They look very comfortable this time comparing to the trip in Netherlands. I guess because King Abdullah is half english. So he and Queen Rania feel beter in them second country. That's my point of view.

I can't speak for Her_Majesty, but I was referring to how straight her hair is. Her hair always looks great.....I'm just envious at how stick-straight it is.

I don't think so because this is an official visit not a state visit.

go to your nearest hair salon and ask 4 extensions!

 

[Elspeth]

I don't think so because this is an official visit not a state visit.

Wasn't it an official visit rather than a state visit where Camilla wore the Delhi Durbar tiara? I wouldn't abandon all hope just yet.

 

[houri]

I am hopeing also to see a tiara in this visit

 

[Her_Majesty]

go to your nearest hair salon and ask 4 extensions!

That would be a possibility... I don't think it would look like this anyway since my hair is very curly ...
I think Ranja's hair looks much better in these pictures then it did in NL..

 

[salma]

I am hopeing also to see a tiara in this visit

I think not because aren´t gala dinner.
