Palma’s security services are getting ready for  the influx of hundreds of journalists and TV presenters from all over the world this week.

Palma.—This Saturday morning, the King of Spain’s youngest daughter, Princess Cristina, will appear in a Palma court to answer questions about the business activities of her husband, Iñaki Urdangarin, the Duke of Palma and the whole world will be watching.
With the princess expected to be driven to the rear entrance of the court, photo opportunities will be few and far between but owners of apartments with balconies over looking the rear patio of the court house have rented out their balconies for as much as 10,000 euros for the day.
The only cafe in the secure area cordoned off by the police will be offering a special Princess breakfast to the 300 journalists and crew who are accredited to cover the event.
