I felt sorry for Queen Sofia who was on her own,when we saw the other Royals most of them were in pairs.I might have missed something but I had hoped that Infanta Pilar might be seated with the queen,she accompanied Her Majesty to all other events this week.Both sister in laws seem quite close and enjoy each others company.
In saying all that,Queen Sofia looked delighted to be there and waved with much enthusiasm.

Queen Margrethe saying a few words to TV2 after a handball match: "Lidt uventet og helt pragtfuldt" - TV 2 Nyhederne
She said: "It was fantastically exciting to watch. I don't understand much about handball, but I understood that this was a bit unexpected and utterly wonderful".
Q: They were behind?
QMII: "That may be".
Also present to cheer the victorious Danish team  were Princess Benedikte and Prince Henrik.

Interesting. Normally the sentry at the foot of the landing Sailor From The Danish Royal Yacht Dannenbrog Stands
is armed with a drawn cutlass and not just a truncheon. Perhaps out of curtesy of the host nation?

Queen Sofia was as representative of Spain, Infanta Pilar as a member of the International Olympic Committee, so they sat in different places. Queen Sofia left London after the opening, Infanta Pilar and some of her children stay there watching the competitions.
