Official visit to the United States. June 14 to 19, 2018.
Their Majesties the King and Queen will travel to the United States of America from June 14 to 19. During their stay, they will visit New Orleans (Louisiana) and San Antonio (Texas), two cities that celebrate the three hundred years of their respective foundations this year and that hold important historical testimonies of the deep and close ties that unite Spain and the United States.

Later, on the 19th, King Felipe and Queen Letizia will officially visit Washington D.C., where they will be received at the White House by the President of the United States, Donald Trump, and the First Lady, Melania Trump.

It is a beautiful trip. The kings have been received in a wonderful way, as always traveling to the US, but in New Orleans, it has been very special because they have treated them with immense affection, especially their mayor LaToya Cantrell who has spoiled them every day.
Now San Antonio. It will be difficult to overcome the N. O. but we will see ... hahaha

apparently F&L got the afternoon off in san antonio :)
i know it happens that royals get time off during official visits, but it is kind of rare so always makes me wonder what they do during that time... mostly rest, i assume, as official visits must be a tiring thing!
