Nancy off with Queen Sofia for a lunch & a visit to an art school where Nancy was persuaded to join the students in dancing the Flamenco. She made every paper in the world & a lot of magazines.

I made a morning speech on free enterprise to about 350 business leaders— some Americans who head up Am. businesses in Spain. The King accompanied me. Then I was into a meeting with Gonzalez and members of the Cabinet & Parliament.

The day was topped off with a State dinner—White tie again. The dinner was in the official Palace which is used for such occasions. All in all it was a good day and a fine relationship exists. The people in the streets were really friendly & enthused.
