Secret visit to the German homeland

Queen Silvia of Sweden (69) will turn 70 on the day before Christmas Eve, but her close relatives and friends have landed one after the other in the club of the 70s. For Silvia good reasons for secret visits to her old German homeland .

For example, last weekend Silvia and King Carl Gustaf (67) traveled privately for a flying visit to Coburg (via private jet via Erfurt) to attend Schloss Callenberg at the birthday party of their cousin Prince Andreas of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.

Although this was already in March 70, but apparently took on his most prominent cousin Queen Elizabeth (87) an example and asked, as she handles it, on a date that promises warmth and sun, the happy family celebration. His kinship is large and noble, because in almost every dynasty in Europe can be proven Saxon-Coburg blood.

To be celebrated on 21 June. Then Prince Poldi of Bavaria, also a close friend of Queen Silvia and King Carl Gustaf 70.

However, so far apparently only a select circle is known to whom exactly the famous ex-racing driver from the house of Wittelsbach will toast his birthday.

The Munich press said that Poldi had "disappeared" towards Sweden. Very convenient for Queen Silvia . Then she does not have it so far, as long as she counts what no one doubts as part of the round of the invitees.
