Thank you Yennie for posting the pictures. I think that the "the royal siblings in St Maxime in ´98"-pic is from 1999! But the picture above that picture is from 1998. If you look at Madeleine and Carl-Philip they had far more "baby-faces" in the "Villa Mirage"-pic and princess Victoria was a little bit thinner than in the 1999-pic. But ok, that are just peanuts, it just caught my eye.

[Yennie]

maybe you´re right... I´m not really sure of the date, just a wild guess =)

Victoria at Solliden 1992

Madeleine and Silvia at Solliden

[Josefine]

not many summer photos this year.....

[Yennie]

no, just paparazzi photos. I´ve only seen the ones of them walking and tanning at the beach house...

[Josefine]

there is no more press photos during the summer besides those from the crown princess birthday then.

[Yennie]

Today we had terrible weather and I was extremely bored. So I decided to look trough some old royal books and scan some photos. And because I really want the summer to be here now, I chose to start with some summer photos :)

Silvia and her children went boating togehter with family friend Agnetha Kreuger and her daughter Caroline. I belive it was the summer of 1980

The Royal Family looks like any other normal family from the photographs taken in 1980.

Thank you, Yennie. Interesting to see pictures of Caroline as child...IMO she has more "changed" than Victoria with the years

[Yennie]

This might not be a summer holiday, but it is a holiday so I tought it should be posted here :)

1-3. These three photos were taken on Mauritius when the family holidayed there in the early 90´s

4-9. now that the summer´s here again, lets enjoy these photos of Carl Philip, taken back in 2003 when he holidayed on the french riviera

...and lets hope there will be similar ones taken this year

[Bellefleur]

The royals all look like they are having fun...summer vacations are lovely!

[Yennie]

I so agree with you Bellefleur! I´m so happy the summer is finally here!

1. Victoria enjoys a day on the private beach in St Maxime, july 1998

2-6. The royals favourite place to spend the summer, Solliden.
Victoria ones said that life at Solliden is never boring, there´s always something to do....

Here´s some random photos of the royals life at Solliden from various years

Hallo Yennie,
thanks for posting the nice pictures from the Queen, Victoria and one from Madeleine. These pics are from the book "Bilder ur mitt liv" from the year 1993, a very nice book with lovely (approx.345pics) pictures.
