Infantas Elena and Cristina and Families Vacation in Lanzarote and Menorca: July 2006

[Stefanie]

FINALLY! After 5 months waiting for new photos here they are.
I´m surprised to see Alexia so slim ( I expected some gain of weight or a belly or so after the three babies but the only problem she has are the heavy upper arms, a inheritance from her grandmother Friederike).
Love Alexia´s long and full hair. Pity that little Carlos can´t be seen closely in one of the photos. He seems to be Daddy´s darling...
Arrietta has got nice long legs already!
So everything is o.k. with Alexia and her family. Don´t expect a fourth child. Pity that they never again attended the Mallorca-vacations since they live in Lanzarote.

We will surely do, as far I know the Urdangarins and Elena's family will stay in Lanzarote only till today. They will probably go somewhere else (Elena for example to US), but they will certainly spend some time in Palma

Jaime de Marichalar did not go to Lanzarote by his annual control in New York

What plus had wanted that to be able to spend five days of relax in Lanzarote with their wife and children authentic. That is what tell the friends me of Jaime de Marichalar, who was the great absentee of days of most familiar in the canary island, while it was in New York to be put under a medical control. Ever since Jaime de Marichalar underwent isquemia cerebral (22 of November of 2001) by which remained entered twenty days in the hospital Gregorio Marañón, its health always has been reason for examinations. By that ailment Dukes de Lugo were transferred in October of 2002 one season with their children to live to New York, in order that it could follow a treatment. Since then, every year it passes the tests pertinent.

This time its trip agreed with the stay of Doña Elena and her children in Lanzarote, where they have enjoyed pretty it in company of the Dukes of Palma de Mallorca and its four children and Alexia of Greece and Carlos Morales. The past Sunday the Infants returned to house, and they assure that Doña to me Elena did it of most relaxed, since almost every day Princess Yaiza went to the center of talasoterapia of the hotel, where the specialty is the massages with hot chocolate and stones, among other many treatments.

Also Sunday returned Marichalar of New York, reason why one hopes that in the next days they go to Majorca.

Thank you for the article and translation monica821. I thought he was away on business. I didn't know he had to still undergo a series of checkups for his heart. It makes sense though since his stroke was so serious years ago.

By the way, "massages with hot chocolates and stones," ahh, some people know how to live.

You're right LaChicaM....Lanzarote and all of the Canary Islands can get really windy!

[crisiñaki]

Hey mon thanks for the scans!
I just realized that the "Lecturas" people mixed the names!
In the picture where Iñaki, Cristina and Irene are, they put Juan and Miguel but those are Juan and Pablo; and in the picture where the boys are with Froilan, those are Juan and Miguel not Juan and Pablo!

I love to see the casual look of Infanta Cristina in those pics... I love her hair too...

About the kids there is nothing we can say more without looking incredibly silly . They are cute beyond words and Irene seems to be a very energic little girl.

That picture of Cristina and Alexia standing with their little babies is priceless:) .
