| The Prince and Princess of Asturias, Don Felipe and Doña Letizia, are currently travelling around Asturias. They have so far eluded reporters, and are enjoying their quiet, intimate holidays in the north of Spain.
Their last port of call has been Doña Letizia’s grandparents’ home in Sardéu (Ribadesella), and are now headed to the mountains on an excursion in a 4x4 jeep driven by the Prince. A convoy of cars filled with journalists tried to follow the couple, but were intercepted by a Guadia Civil patrol.
This is the couple’s second visit to the region, after they stayed in Ribadesella on June 26 for a family celebration following Letizia’s father’s wedding. Before Asturias the couple stayed in Mallorca (Balearic Islands), where the prince took part in the Copa del Rey sailing regatta. They are expected to travel to the Dominican Republic next. They also hope to visit Athens for the Olympics.
