Dutch Introductory Visit to Spain: September 18, 2013

[Jacknch]

Thanks everyone for the pictures, videos and links - I'm really enjoying these introductory visits and it is nice to see how each one is done! As usual, I think Queen Maxima looks as beautiful as ever and every inch a queen!
It was so nice to see Infanta Christina at the lunch too.

For me, it is intriguing to be witnessing the very start of a kings reign - a new king is a rare thing - well, perhaps not for 2013!

IMO, King Juan Carlos has looked quite frail like that throughout the year, but doesn't look any worse, thank goodness.

In some of these pics Max and King JC are sharing a laugh.

The kiss made it to most newspapers. Though in can be interpreted in various ways the consensus seems to be that the couple probably didn't see each other for some time - hence the greeting on the stairs.

I heard Sofia gave her hubby a kiss because she heard of the possible hip operation right before the lunch, wished him good luck.

Its well possible that they didnt see each other for a while, but they defo met inside before greeting WAX. Sofia knows how to play the media too.

The pink press front covers doesnt make the kiss but the lady duo Max & Letizia and their 'style duel'

I guess that's plausible it certainly warrants a kiss I guess!
