Inspired by royal_sophietje Maxima's thread I thought it could be fun to list all her activities and see how her events have evolved and how different factors change the calendar. It would be really interesting to make something like this for Felipe, but I'm afraid it would be impossible ;)

This is all I have for 2004. If someone notices an event I've missed or misdated please tell me. I'll tackle 2005 next.
It can be said that once the honeymoon was over she hit the ground running. Three incoming state visits in the second half of the year and with Felipe she traveled to Mexico, Hungary, Panama, Dominican Republic, the US and Serbia. The President of Hungary invited them for an official visit on their wedding day :p
 
Thank you Ana! I know Letizia had her first solo event on Nov 4 at the Royal Academy because Felipe had to go to a funeral. Unfortunately there was a website change at casareal with lots of old data lost / not properly managed.
 
Missing event:
On July 10th 2004 Felipe and Letizia attended the state funeral for President Klestil in Vienna, Austria.
 
Inspired by royal_sophietje Maxima's thread I thought it could be fun to list all her activities and see how her events have evolved and how different factors change the calendar. It would be really interesting to make something like this for Felipe, but I'm afraid it would be impossible ;)
All of your help is needed and appreciated :flowers:, I know I'm going to miss things

Aww, that is great that I inspired others to do this for other Princesses/Queens as well! Never expected that :flowers:, I thought it would be fun and interesting to see the workload. And it makes dating pictures or organising pictures in ones personal library a tad easier!

First Appearance of Felipe & Letizia:

 

This was by accident, because Felipe had to attend a state funeral abroad. Her real solo agenda only started in the summer of 2005.
