Thanks guys, it was really hot but I actually planned the visit right, since I arrived an hour before F&L came, so I had plenty of time to walk around the stores and buy a couple of books, then see them and leave before the heat was unbearable
A belated thank you to ANNIE_S for posting your photos from the fair. It's great that you were able to see Letizia and Felipe in person. The weather looks as if it was gorgeous!
State Visit UK-Spain planned for July 12-14 in turmoil again?
With PM Theresa Mays election gamble humiliatingly backfiring by calling for an unnecessary election, UK is heading for a Hung Parliament and chaos over Brexit.
It remains to be seen if there will be a functioning parliament at the time of the planned State Visit as May lost her majority and possibly her position as PM.
This video from their visit to El Prado yesterday is missing and it's totally worth of a watching. Apparently, the kids were not told about the royal visit beforehand. The reaction of the girl in the pink t-shirt at 0:44 is priceless! Others look pretty unimpressed though, both in the visit and the painting's explanation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7M8iSJPlkuY
And in the second room, at 3:17, some scholars seem to be more focused on the back of the group than in El Greco and the guide's explanation on the painting Also, when the lesson ends and they rise up to have their pics with F&L, one of them shouts to his friend: "I told you the King was here, I told you, din't I?" (4:01)
A really lovely events, funny kids and art, what else can anybody ask for.
No Trump state visit before 2019? US president’s controversial trip to UK is NOT mentioned in Queen’s Speech but the monarch WILL host Queen Letizia of Spain and her husband King Felipe
They did not visit Liébana. The cancellation of the visit was announced yesterday, because the meteorological forecasts of rain and fog would not allow the helicopter to land in the area.
I just came back from the Fair. I managed to took some pictures even though there was a lot of people and press.
