State Visit to Italy: October 19-22, 2009
 

King Abudllah & Queen Rania will visit Italy, the visit starts on Monday 19, 2009 for a few days

How exciting. I was wondering when they would announce the dates for this trip.

Great sure the next visit is Malta. The visit will start 20 October and finish 22.
They will open a big exhibition about Jordan´s history (next wednesday). And they have more events as a forum and a gala dinner.

sound great,i am looking forward to see Rania and Abdullah starting these two visits.
the visit ti Italy is only one day?

No Lilo three days: 20-22 October.

I am not so exciting because Italy it's a republic so problably Rania won't use any tiara in the gala dinner :(
Even being a State Visit, she only uses tiaras when she is front of another royal, which is a pity because I was wondering she would borrow another new tiara or use Noor (impropable) or Haya's one.

EVENTS:

Wednesday 21: 14.30h. Queen Rania will receive a prize.
Thursday 22: Milan. King Abdullah will attend the forum "Jordan - Italy: Business Forum"

More info,

Tuesday: 12h. Their Majesties will be receive at Quirinale by Giorgio Napolitano.
Wednesday: 14.30h. Queen Rania will give a speech about Islam and Occident, and too she will receive Marisa Bellisario prize.

Abt 2 embark on exciting adventure- state visit 2 Italy -one of my favourite countries.Full of anticipation.Will keep U posted.

Does they fly to Italy today?

Yes ..:flowers: I read that on petra Arabic site.

Thank´s Reeda, I don´t understand why they fly to Italy today if the state visit will start tomorrow, perhaps they have any event today.

is that mean we will not have any photos from the arrival?

Its great to see Zein & Aisha with the King on this visit.
Does anybody know why they are with the King on this visit? Isnt it unusaly for them to be so? I know that one of Queen Noors daughter go to E.Asia but I do inderstand why she does

nice pic for Ali, the CP appeared also

What a suprise, a picture of them leaving which doesnt get published on all visits. Isnt that P.Hussein?
Rania looks good but her bag looks quite empty :biggrin:

nice to see PHussein,he really looks good,I like QRania outfit.

It's actually not unusual for the two of them to arrive the night before the start of a state visit to a European country. Perhaps so everyone can get settled in or so the first day of the visit isn't such a long one (with the flight and everything).

King and Queen Arrive in Rome

I hadnt know Hashem & Salma were also on the visit. No school? even if it was a few days, I personally still think it wasnt a good idea.
Rania abit dressed up for the arrival (if that was the arrival pictures) since this wasnt an official welcoming ceremony though looked good.
No pictures of teh other royals yet. Nice to know that a Jordanian princess is embassador to Italy.

Queen Rania will open Jordanian Week entitled Giordania Svelata (Jordan unveiled) in Milan on Oct 22.
