Queon Fabiola of Belgium, back in her native Spain for a holiday, rolaxed into happy informality. To keep on appointment with the local hairdresser at Zaraux, the little northern Spanish seaside resort where she is staying with King Baudouin, she went by bicycle. As aho podalled, wobbling slightly through the narrow cobbled streets on her way from her holiday villa, she was chosed by shouting, laughing children, gaped at by startled holiday makers and barked at by dogs. "This is the only way to travel," she said laughingly. "So much fun. Much better than a car." And she went in to the hairdresser's for a shampoo and set, in preparation for lunch later with General France and his wife, on board. Franco's luxurious personal yacht, the Axor, moored in San Sebastian bay.
