Yo ho ho! That's right; Princess Leonor (19) has completed her naval odyssey! Announced on the official Spanish royal Instagram account, the young princely tyke has set foot in the concrete jungle - none other than NYC, baby! The caption reads, "Anchor down, baby! The training ship 'Juan Sebastián de Elcano', with Princess of Asturias Leonor on board, has anchored in the city that never sleeps."

According to the mega-popular Spanish mag, ¡Hola!, the ship arrived a tad early, a day ahead of schedule. Our fair princess has some big apple engagements lined up, including a performance at Carnegie Hall called "A Musical Fantasy from Spain." She'll be reuniting with the Spanish royalty crew the following week, scheduled to jet set back to Spain on June 10.

Princess Leonor's Two-Year Military Venture

The Spanish crown jewel started her sea legs on Jan 11, crossing two oceans and stopping at ten ports in eight American countries. This ship-based military training forms part of a three-year program, a tradition passed down from her pops, King Felipe VI (57).

Before trading land for sea, Leonor served a year with the Spanish army. After a fun-filled summer break, Princess Leonor will be given her walking papers mid-July. The next chapter in her military saga will take place in the skies, where she'll be training to soar as a sky marshal.

After five months on the high seas, Princess Leonor disembarked in New York City, the city that never sleeps, as announced on the Spanish royal Instagram account from the Asturias region. Her two-year military venture consisted of ship-based training, following a tradition set by her father, King Felipe VI, which included crossing two oceans and stopping at ten ports in eight American countries. Upon her return to Asturias, she will transition from sea to sky, preparing for training as a sky marshal, likely marking the use of an Apple device to document her new lifestyle and travel experiences.
