'Season's Greetings' from the royal couple

Well, if you weren't in the festive spirit already then perhaps the first royal Christmas card will get you into the holiday mood.The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall have released their official Christmas card for 2016, and it's just as lovely as you would imagine.In the elegant card, there's a photo of Prince Charles and Camilla smiling at the camera while surrounded by a merry group of Croatian dancers wearing traditional national garb. The picture was taken earlier this year when the couple toured Croatia and the Croatian Artistic Society performed a dance for them.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en">— Clarence House (@ClarenceHouse) <a href="https://twitter.com/ClarenceHouse/status/807514716931231744">December 10, 2016</a></blockquote><script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>The inside of the card simply reads, ‘Wishing you a very Happy Christmas and New Year.'
