And only two PET officers around.

Despite there being tens of thousands of people at the festival in a more or less constant state of intoxication it's nevertheless a very sought after posting by the police, because they can enjoy the music and hardly anything happens.
One rape was the worst incident this year, otherwise it was a few thefts and some people selling hard drugs - and considering that this was even mentioned in the news, I think it's telling of how peaceful it is: One Indian guy was caught photographing urinating (predominantly female) festival goers.

mmm, i'd qualify a rape as a pretty serious offence / crime to take place in a festival..... it's a world away from selling drugs...

Oh yes, rape is a serious crime. But that really was the most serious offense. There were hardly any brawls at all. No robberies, no muggings, certainly no stabbings. - So it went directly from rape to selling drugs being the next step down the criminal ladder.

Do Princess Mary's twins children go the kindergarten or not? And her other children, did the go there? Thanks

If they haven't already started in kindergarten, they certainly will here in August.
The usual age is at three years old.

We must assume that they will attend the same kindergarten as Isabella and Christian - and bette Henrik too.

As they will turn four in January, I presume that they are already attending. And are almost ready for school. Or do children start school at 5 or later in Denmark?

They start in pre-school (0-grade) when they are 5-7 years old, depending on maturity and when they have their birthday.

 

[SLV]

5-7? That certainly is a lot later than here. My daughter is 9 days younger than the twins and she starts school when she turns 4. The twins were born on my duedate, so I always remember their birthday.

Oh they do, but Amalienborg is the office.
So just like QMII, M&F pendle from Fredensborg to Amalienborg on weekdays.

This is just so cool in my book.
Love that they can go about without much fuss.

 

[Muhler]

Thanks Fairy Tale.

Do any of the locals know where the pic was taken?

 

[polyesco]

Thanks Fairy Tale.

I guess Mary has picked up Vincent and Josephine from the kindergarten and is on the way home. Nothing unusual to see Mary and Frederik with the children cycling among all other Copenhageners. It's indeed cool and a popular thing that they are a natural part of the city.

The place? Mary and the twins are at 'Kongens Nytorv', so they just have to follow the street to the right side called 'Bredgade' and they will be home in 5 minutes, even on bike.

The pic is taken at the roundabout "Krinsen" at Kongens Nytorv. Just at the start of Nyhavn. You´ll have Det Kongelige Teater at the left and the French Embassy at your right hand. The white house that CPss Mary´s head is covering is D´Angleterre.

I don´t think they are on their home. If the twins are attending the same kindergarden as their cousins then this way would be a deroute

how nice..great they can do all this without any fuss..we also see all six can go to the cinema and watch movies..running and shopping in the streetds..take a walk at the harbour etc..makes me actually quite proud of little denmark

 

[MARG]

Interesting that Vincent and Josephine are both wearing bike helmets and Mary is not. Bit of a mixed message there.

Frederik participated at the DHL Team relay around Marselisborg Castle Tuesday, August 19, 2014.

He was running in a team of 4, the same team that first took part in this event 20 years ago. what a nice idea

On 30 August, Frederik and Mary attended the wedding of Søren Jessen and Flora Montgomery in Northern Ireland – along with actor Orlando Bloom. Mary wore a lovely pale pink dress and one of my favourite coats of hers and Frederik... well, Frederik wore that vest:

[MidwestMom]

Mary looks very nice - Frederik looks tired. Probably just got back from the US and then had to go to Ireland.

Actually, I like the vest. My son has a similar one that he wears to church on Christmas Eve.

I've seen it mentioned somewhere, possibly Billed Bladet, that Frederik sufferes badly from jet lag.
It's possible he flew directly to Ireland from the US.

 

[Roskilde]

Thanks for the pictures from the wedding. Frederik indeed looks jet-lagged after the direct flight across the Atlantic. Understandable (said by a member who sleeps a week after having crossed the Atlantic) I see Mary cuddled his knee and hand during the loooooong cermony
Guess there is someone who has missed his wife the last week

 

[Ellenpaddy]

Cute as always?

Does anybody know how long does the flight from US to ireland?

Fred looks really awful. He should have stayed in bed and trusted Nick of Greece to act as walker for Mary.

Nice and positive as always, are we...?

Very tired or not, it's hardly a surprise that he wanted to attend the wedding of one of his oldest friends.

 

[minstrel2010]

Mary did a great job of discreetly nudging Fred ,it's really difficult if your eyes are tired to keep them open,.
