there is a 100% chance that Bail did not call Breha ahead of time and just showed up on Alderaan, got off the ship with his cape fashionably covering one arm, and was like “Hey babe, remember when we talked about getting a kid” and he just dramatically pushed back his cape to reveal baby Leia
You don’t see it often but people have always been silly

The interior of polar explorer Ernest Shackleton’s (1874-1922) hut in Cape Royd, Antarctica. The hut was built in 1908 and used as a base camp for one of Shackleton’s attempts to be the first to reach the South Pole. He and his team spent nine months here, enduring temperatures as low as -58 F (-50 C). The hut remains as it was abandoned in 1909, preserved by the extreme cold and low humidity.
I think a lot of people assume in their heads that Europe is further south than it is because it’s so warm there in comparison to say, Siberia or northern Canada.
Well why is Europe so warm then? I’m glad you asked. They get all the hot wind.
And you may reasonably ask, is this hot air coming from the central Atlantic or from the mouths of European politicians? Like most things it’s a combination of different… but no yeah it’s just warm air currents from down south in the tropics
This also shows why a relatively mild heat in California or Texas might cause drought and heat-stroke in places like England or Denmark, because those areas are used to Northern-Canada levels of heat
I think the thing that affected me most when moving across the ocean is the strange high light in Northern Europe. The sky is a different color, and the winters are just slightly darker and drawn-in.
