Mathilde is really lovely. She reminds me of the perfect 50's housewife. She is very quite and elegant and can have impact when needed.

Actually she's not "very quiet" at all.

There are of course different points of view :). In my opinion this comparison does no justice to her. Look at all the things she is involved with. For example: I don´t think an housewife would become an UN Ambassador – which does not mean, that I wouldn´t pay my deepest respect towards the social work of housewives. She fullfills her role with passion and seriousness, it´s not just walking beside her husband and doing some charity for amusement.

This is the best time of the year to be in Cape Town. I hope this couple get to see as many sights as possible especially along the Cape Wine Route, the top of Table Mountain and Robben Island where Nelson Mandela served his prison sentence.

Corazon, I was wondering myself, because Mathilde looks like she has a bigger tummy than usual.
