Security presence is pretty high, so far I've counted five bodyguards, none of them from PET (don't recognize any and DK police officers, like their Swedish counterparts, stand out like lighthouses in a crowd
). I guess Germany has rules about foreign armed police officers operating in Germany?
As Roskilde pointed out, M&F were well covered on the evening news. Not least in why they go to Germany and why it means so much to Danish businesses that they go.
Publicity, good publicity sell. Status open doors and including an opportunity to mean real live royals is a great incentive to attract German business people and thereby establish contacts between companies that may otherwise not have made any particular contact.
The German public service channel NDR has this about M&F:

As a little trivia: the population of Hamburg is slightly less than the population of DK. So no wonder that city is a must for such a visit.
The comment down below, express a delight that NDR in their news had M&F as their top story. - (So am I, so am i!)
ADDED: Hamburger Morgenpost also have a couple of nice little articles:

The Nordschleswiger also covers the visit:

They write for the ethnic German minority in DK, but also for the many Germans now living and working in DK.
