The King and Queen's visit seem to be a great success so far, they really seem to enjoy their time and having a lot of fun meeting all of these different kinds of people. Queen Sofía looks impeccable as always I might add.

Those dresses of the ladies on the balcony look fantastic, btw.

why did the King have to jump up and down in the video?

It's a kind of tradition of Valencia. It's "la mascleta".
And also because the people was saying: "Bote el Rey!"
