Thank you for getting out on a boat and mugging for us, Pierre.

This is, per Informative Caption, the "35th Copa Del Rey Mafre Sailing Cup," which, sure, okay. Fine! Keep showing us your forearms!

This ensemble confuses me. But I know nothing about Competitive Sailing Ensembles.

I suppose I will have to examine it very, very closely.

Forearms!

I am always at home for Casual Royals in Shorts.

This elegantly sock-less photo reminds me: Thank you all for your recommendations to me about no-show socks. I bought the Bombas, and they're good!

This was the funeral service for Marta Marzotto, an Italian socialite/jewelry designer whose obit is quite a read.

Hideous! Also, there were some amusing shenanigans with Andy Murray -- the British flagbearer (the American one is Phelps) -- and Princess Anne. I've posted it in the body of this post.

"Gonna fight so much crime in Rio."

The Spanish royal family was in Mallorca this week, for their traditional summer vacay. I...am not sure why Letizia kind of looks like she might ditch all of them to head out to the club. Maybe that's her plan!

Say cheese!

Ah, it's the Annual Spanish Royals Family Summer Photocall and, apparently, the theme is STRIPES. I approve.

Letizia is really working that Wind In Her Hair thing here.

Post photocall, what else does one do but go stand around on a boat?

CPF and CPM are in Rio now, surely reminiscing about the fact that it was at the Olympics that they fell in love.

"This just has SO MANY WORDS."
