  • September 16, 2020: Lets Play Fortnite
    After the Best Royal Day Ever yesterday, today was a great calm day. The British Royals had no public engagements and neither did the Danes. But what we did get was some Fortnite from Crown Prince Haakon, and a nice non covid related event from the Spanish Royals. Plus an update on Princess Leonor. I have decided I will take up biking on Wednesday’s just like Prince Daniel. And I have discovered I wish my library and theater were in the same building like the new building Queen Máxima opened today.

The Duke and DUCHESS of Cambridge visited some of the helpers in London. There were two royal birthday's and one reign anniversary.
