The RF arrived at the palace at another entry, the guards fire 21 cannon shots to salute the king.
Letizia in black & white. |
Felipe and his family has arrived.
I would've hoped for a more colored outfit on Letizia but nevertheless black and whit evan be very classic. Has the King & Queen arrived? |
^The Queen was with them
|
Princess Letizia repeats the dress of Cervantes lunch, I think Queen Sofia also repeats suit.
|
Any pictures?
|
Just some screen caps from El Mundo..

Leonor and Sofia look a bit overwhelmed..
Btw, Letizia's wink.. |
Letizia looks very tense, I don't blame her.
The girls look adorable! |

The man reading the speech of JC has a word of graditude to the Queen.
I noticed the wink of Letizia to her daughters too, Charlotte Aster. The king signed, received a kiss from his wife and hugged his son. Felipe and JC changed seats. A long applause and Leonor and Sofia give their grandfather a kiss. I just spotted Queen Anne Marie and the duke and duchess of Calabria. |
It's so sad! King Juan is so emotional.
I liked how he moved over so Felipe can take his seat. |
I jumped on my seat as Juan Carlos stumbled. He really looks frail.
|
Surely he has been the most consequential monarch of the last half century. What a man.
