Nice pictures. The twins are getting so big, Frederik may not be able to take them this way much longer :smile: Are the schools in Denmark on summer vacation yet? Will the family be moving to Fredensborg for the summer?

:previous: Isabella's gift was a set of jewelry - necklace and bracelet with interchangeable charms/pendants. Very nice for a young girl. There are some pictures in the Rex gallery that Muhler posted in post #348. Bella looked so sweet, and she did a wonderful job. A little surprised that...

Thanks, Muhler. A good idea that makes perfect sense. Helps everyone feel more relaxed.

"A nice but cold evening in Tivoli with TRH Crown Prince Frederik and Princess Isabella and Prince Christian to Queen's revival at the Pantomime Theatre" https://instagram.com/p/3ermZwp_bz/[/QUOTE ------------------------------------------------------- Spectacular curtain! I notice that the...

Over on the frederiketmary blog, they refer to Isabella as a ''ferry godmother.'' :lol:

:previous: Thank you! Thanks to this forum, I can pick out a few words, but it's nice to have a full and proper translation. :flowers:

Nice cover, and sweet picture of Frederik's grandparents, too. Could someone please translate the captions under the photos?

Politicians must be the same the world over. I'll be interested to see how the election goes - and I hope the whales will be all right. ;) What is the legal voting age in Denmark?

:previous: Thank you for that interesting post, Muhler. A three week campaign sounds great to those of us in the USA who have to put up with campaigns that seem endless! Apparently you don't have the ''voter ID'' issues that some malcontents keep going on about over here. :bang: Keep it...

Certainly seems to be a successful visit. F & M look happy and relaxed. I read the Daily Mail article, though, and some of the comments are vile - even My New Royals has nasty comments. Most of them are ''anonymous'' or from people who don't live in Denmark. I'll just take the word of the...

:previous: I'm reading Emma Tom's book, ''Something About Mary''...I know, I know... She mentions a story about Queen Ingrid: when the Germans invaded, they wanted to take over Ingrid and Frederik's home for their headquarters. She told them that the Danes had allowed them into the country...

The anchor monument where Frederik laid the wreath, it is from a special/significant ship? It's always nice to see the coverage of these ceremonies. My Dad and four of his brothers were in WWII (yes, they all came back alive, although Dad served stateside). Knowing that some of them served in...

:previous:Thank you for the Greenland pictures, Roskilde. It's a very special kind of beauty, isn't it? On the second picture of the Queen and Frederik, I love it that even on a dogsled trip, she's wearing her engagement ring with the huge diamonds. :lol:

Joachim is certainly well dressed. He could give Prince Charles some serious competition in that area, except for the occasional ''unusual'' dinner jacket, that is. The hand-in-pocket thing must run in the family. :smile:

I wasn't following the DRF during Joachim's first marriage, when Alexandra was at the height of her popularity. But from what I have read, it seems that Joachim's image has 'softened' somewhat in the last few years No doubt due to the adult way in which the divorce was handled, and now he is...

I'm beginning to wonder if something more serious is going on, like a health problem that hasn't yet been disclosed, or possibly the beginnings of dementia. Although I can understand his reasons for stepping away from the wine production - he won't be directly involved, and maybe that's what...

:previous: And all of them very good-looking, too! That's the first time I've noticed Athena waving. The twins and Henrik the Younger look like they're over it. :smile:

Thank you so much, Muhler! So ''y'' has the sound of ''u.'' I'm going to bookmark that site for future reference.

How many grand events can you pack into two days? My goodness! Over on the Order of Sartorial Splendor blog, there are literally thousands of comments - too many to go through. Just a few observations: Too bad PH couldn't be there; I had hoped he would be well enough to attend tonight's...

Mary, Marie, and Letitzia - beautiful! So glad Mary wore that dress again. Frederik's new uniform:wub: The hat, though, seems to be very...feathery :whistling:

I certainly agree that standards should be maintained. I used to work in a department store where we had to wear name tags with our first name, and the first letter of our last name. So I had complete strangers calling me by my first name, which I didn't really care for. One of the district...

Muhler, thank you for your posts about the history of April 9 in Denmark. I too hope the veterans will be recognized. WWII veterans are rapidly dying off. And thank you too for the explanation of the chain the mayor wears. I've learned a lot today. :flowers:

What a celebration - and everyone looks wonderful! Frederik and Joachim looked so happy and proud to be with their lovely families, as well they should. In another year, Nikolai will be as tall as his father. I see four future ''heartbreakers'' there. ;) The little girl who presented flowers...

It would be wonderful to see both exhibitions - Mary's and QM's. I was fortunate enough to see the display of Princess Diana's clothes, including her wedding dress, when it toured the US. The problem is, you're so used to seeing pictures of the dresses being worn, that when you see the...

I have often thought that the position of LIW must be exhausting. She is at CP Mary's side at almost all public appearances, always there to help, and dressed for the occasion. Mary has assistants to help with wardrobe, etc. - does the LIW? Surely she has to have help with her own household...
