2 Questions
I'm new to this forum but find the Spanish Royal Family enchanting. Two questions which may have been answered somewhere:
1. King Juan Carlos once had a yacht built near where I live in Door County, WI, USA by Palmer Johnson. I read it was blown up in an act of terrorism years ago. Who was behind this terrible act? Was anyone hurt? Was the King meant to be on it at that time or was this a "symbolic" attack?
2. Queen Noor and Queen Sofia have long been friends--no secret there. In her book, Noor describes visiting the home of the King and Queen of Spain and being so impressed as it felt homey, private but not distant from the people......she uses Queen Sofia a lot as a role model and tried to emulate her approach to homes later on. Is there a photo of their home anywhere? It sounded lovely.
Thank you.
