I'm not sure these have been posted--sorry if they are dups.
I love Letizia's expression in this one, reminds me of the Octavio Paz line that was receited to them during this trip: The world begins when two people love
Greeting well-wishers
Felipe laughing at yesterday's conference
I just adore this couples chemistry.

She gets it right this time. The suit is elegant and her hairstyle complements it. :flower:

A few images from their last day in Mexico:
Felipe and Letizia
Love Felipe's tie!
With a very young fan.

Shaking more hands
Felipe and Letizia
Waving
Arriving at museum
Cute story I read in the mexican press: A mariachi band played for them at one of their stops today and one of th songs was about Guadalajara, where Letizia lived as a student/reporter when she was in her early twenties. Apparently she knew the song and quietly sang along, charming every one around her...The press reports have been very favorable througout their trip.

The pink outfit looks fantastic on Letizia. She wears bright, vibrant colours very well.
I am also loving some of the anecdotes shared in this thread about the couple by everyone, such as the "he's the boss" story!
Thank you everybody.

I love Felipe's suit. :flower: .but the beard.ay he looks a bit creepty.
The color doesn't fit Letizia's complexion nicely or complement it at all. It also looks like the outfit is some combination, because of the two distinct materials.

Everyone is in their perfect right to pick away at this detail or the other, but what really matters is that the trip to Mexico has been a complete and total success. Everywhere they went they were greeted by large and enthusiastic crowds. Vicente Fox went well beyond the call of protocol by inviting them to mass on Sunday and giving them the use of his own presidential plane to go up to Monterrey. The Mexican press is filled with nothing but praise for Felipe and Letizia--they impressed people with their openess, their down-to-earth approachability, their elegance, their interest and intelligence. Much commented upon was Felipe's evident preparedness for his future role and Letizia's beauty--described in one article as a "fascinating" beauty.
As one Spanish columnist covering the trip wrote: Letizia even managed to impress the infamously difficult to please Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
So I am pleased for one of my favorite couples. They have certainly started off on the right foot--and strongly at that. Next up are Panama, the Dominican Republic and Budapest, all before September 10--and I'm sure we'll also be able to enjoy a few images of the pair at the Royal Family summer haunt of Palma de Mallorca.

I love seeing pictures of Felipe and Letizia everyday, but I'm really hoping that they'll stop and get some rest. Don't want to burn our princess out now.

You are welcome. And here's one final anecdote for the romantic sap in all of us--it describes events after the dinner on Monday night:
"When the dinner ended, the attendees were surprised by the appearance of the singer Tania Libertad, who, wearing a Caftan in orange tones, interpreted romantic songs by Agustín Lara and Jose Alfredo Jiménez. While she sang, the princes, like one more pair of lovers, held hands and interchanged glances of complicity. At one moment, perhaps forgetting the rules, Letizia tenderly caressed the cheek of her husband."

I guess to hope for pictures of them lounging around a pool is out of the question !!?? :P
Ok .. how about some high dives off the middle board, and a shot of some-one pulling their bathing suit back into position ?
