Santo Domingo.- The Princess Leonor of Bourbon will set sail this Saturday with the Spanish Navy training ship 'Juan Sebastián de Elcano', after its stopover in Santo Domingo.
Along with her fellow midshipmen from the 97th Training Cruise of the Navy, the heir to the Spanish throne will head to New York, the last stop on this voyage through America before returning to Spain.
Leonor arrived aboard the ship on May 19 and held two important visits, the Dominican vice president Raquel Peña and the first lady Raquel Arbaje along with her daughters.

Since it set sail from Cádiz in January, the Elcano has made stops in the Spanish Canary Islands, from there it set off for America and docked in Salvador de Bahia (Brazil), after nearly a month of crossing the Atlantic. The next stop was Montevideo (Uruguay) and it crossed the Strait of Magellan to call at Punta Arenas and Valparaíso (Chile), El Callao (Peru), Panama and Colombia (Cartagena/Santa Marta), to finally arrive in Santo Domingo.
