If I remember correctly, the King's summer holidays were extremely short last year. After the accession the King and Queen were so busy that they didn't take much time to relax. So imo they deserve a bit more this year. Also the time on Mallorca is only a part time holiday because there are audiences and other representational stuff to do.

I agree thay they deserve this vacation. Besides, they seem to work more often that other members of foreign royal houses, and I've never read about them taking many brief vacation during the year. Actually, Felipe and Letizia are the ones who never get critics from me due to the vacation because the don't seem to have more breaks that others.

I wonder if Queen Sofia has already arrived at the Marivent Palace?

Nice to see Sofia and Juan Carlos together with their family. I had the impression that they lived separately now and appeared together only when occasion demanded it.

The royal children will be returning to Calanova this year for their 5th year now. Anyone know if all of them will be coming?

I see casareal.es uses the prefixes Doña respectively Don for the two ladies and the two gentlemen received in audience.
When is it a Senor/Señora and when is it a Don/Doña?

When it comes before the given name, or full name, the usual most formal treatment in Spain is Don/Doña. Señor/Señora is usually used with just the surname (kind like the English Mr/Ms) and is less common.
It was great to see the family outing pics. Can't get over how grown up Pipe and Victoria are 
Leo and Sof are darlings as always. Do we know if there will be a photoshoot in Marivent like last year?

Lovely to see Elena and her children present with the rest of the family and was really surprised to see King Juan Carlos present.

Indeed, so was I  .
Each time I see them out and about together though, (which doesn't happen often), I can't help but thinking about "exiled" Cristina.
