I'm sure Frederik had a jolly good time with the four kids even though Mary had to go to Malaysia (though I guess she left in the evening which has given them the entire day to celebrate Frederik's birthday).
 
I love the photos thank you! yes I think Fred was not very happy about the photos! where is PET?
 
:previous: I don't think they were around.

Here & Nu has an article: Frederik og Mary havde Christian og Isabella med i byen - HER&NU

Kim Vibe-Pedersen, a friend of Frederik had ordered a table at restaurant Skt. Annæ. (*) With him were also his two sons. Later M&F and their oldest arrived.
Someone has really talked because we are getting details about the menu, meatballs (frikadeller) with potato salad and also tartlets with chicken and asparagus. (I can without being the least bit shameful eat a dusin. Major yum, yum. Before proceeding to the meatballs)! All prepared by the chef himself.
The restaurant is apparantly a place M&F frequent from time to time.
They serve traditional Danish food.

On Sunday friends arrived for brunch at 10.30.

(*) Very logically the restaurant is located at Skt. Annæ Plads (square), on the same side as the kindergarten Isabella and the twins are attending. A couple of hundred meters straight down the street from Amalienborg.
So perhaps they assumed that in case of trouble PET could be there within five minuttes, even on foot.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #22, 2013.
Pilluarit Frederik.
Written by our sentinel at Amalienborg Square, Henrik Salling.

On the rainy Sunday Frederik had birthday a number of Greenlanders turned up with flags at Amalienborg Square, to cheer Frederik and hopefully get a glimpse of him. Alas in vain. But they nevertheless shouted: "Pilluarit, Frederik = congratulations, Frederik".
The Greenlanders came from the shelter for Greenlandic alcoholics and drugaddicts, Naapiffik.

- It may be easy to smile a little, but it is telling for how much Frederik and his love Greenland is genuinely appreciated by Greenlanders in general. Also those who have had the misfortune to end up in the bottom of the society.
It is a sad fact that quite a number of those Greenlanders who for various reasons come to DK, end up as alcoholics and drugg addicts and they do stand out and there is a lot of social stigma associated with them.
- Those Greenlanders who do well here in DK, are never mentioned.

-------------------- (To be moved if need be).

- The article also mentions that Mary will be in Aachen together with Benedikte on the day King Willem Alexander and Queen Maxima visit DK. Frederik will at the same time be in Greenland with Arctic Research Centre. Here he will visit the research stations, Zackenberg and Staion North in north east Greenland. He will also visit the HQ of the Sirius Patrol at Daneborg.
 
:previous:Its nice to see the connection and relationship Frederik has with Greenland and its people.

thank you Muhler for the background information and for bringing this and the other articles/translations :flowers:

a shame Mary and Frederik wont be in DK to greet the King and Queen of the Netherlands, but of course it makes more sense that they are greeted by Queen Margrethe and Henrik :)
 
Great pictures of Frederik, Mary and the kids. Its not always you see them so casually. I know its frustrating to be followed by the paparazzi's but I must be honest that its good for us fans.
 
Slightly bummed out that Mary and Frederik wont be there to greet WA and Máxima when they're visiting Denmark, but obviously it makes sense since they're no longer "on the same level", so to speak.
 
As Muhler has written was Frederik's birthday 26 May celebrated quietly at Amalienborg with the closest family and friends.

Here are some pictures of Christian and Isabella waiting for greeting the guests. But for the little spunky Bella, waiting time can easy be a bit long and boring :p There is also a picture showing Mary in the door calling her children to come in. The article also tells that Christian put his arm around his little sister's shoulder while they walked indoor. (pic 5)

Ah, those two are so lovely. I love the way Christian is looking at Bella when she's playing around with the balloon :ROFLMAO:
 
Nice pictures! Thank you for sharing! I hope someday we can get better quality of those :D

thank you Roskilde for the pictures:flowers:
#1 and #5 are too cute...great brother and sister bond.
is #6 of Frederik arriving to the party or?
 
thank you the picture are priceless1 i love them ,but i don't see Mary!
 
No, you're right Ashelen, it's simple because my scan of the picture with Mary in the door unfortunately became quite blurred.

The picture of Frederik was included in the article, but the article says nothing about whether the picture is from the his birthday. I posted it because it was featured in the article and because I think it is a pretty handsome picture of him ;)
 
Do we know when and how the CP couple are going to Sweden for M&C's wedding? And will they be accompanied by their eldest children (Christian and Isabella)?

I will be away for a long weekend...so I won't get to see wedding pics until Wednesday...I know, first world problems ;)

Crown Prince Frederik has an event tomorrow the 7th "HRH Crown Prince rows grants from the Crown Prince Frederik Fund at. 10.00."

and i havent read anything about Christian or Isabella being part of the wedding,

anyway have a great long weekend :flowers:
 
I still have a big hope that Bella will be one of the bridesmaids. She has the perfect age and charm :wub:

I might have an idea that F+M ( and children?) doesn't participate in the private dinner tonight. Their calendar says they first will participate in the wedding from tomorrow and I can read in this weeks Billedbladet that Caroline Heering turns 40 years old today, so maybe they have been invited to a big birthday party tonight. But that's just a guess, maybe we will see them both tonight.

And yes, have a nice weekend AnnaNotherThing :flowers:

i read on billedebladets website that they met mary&frederik and children out enjoying the nice summer weather and each other last friday and that we can read and see photos from billedebladets meeting with the family in the upcoming billede bladet :) :) :)
 
I have seen that several people has written here on TRF that they think Frederik appears more toned and slim than before. Muhler wrote that his guess was that Frederik is training for something.

And Muhler, I think you got it right ... This weekend, from Saturday to Sunday, Frederik will participate in a 24 hours continuously mountain bike race in Rude forest. :eek::notworthy:

Go Frederick Go!! Love seeing royals do these type of physical challenges. Philip at the race, Maxima swimming, MM biking! Love it! Good call Muhler!
 
:previous: That'll be interesting to follow.
- With a little bit of luck Mary and the children may be there to cheer daddy.

Anyone going to see the race in person?

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #24, 2013.
Mary og Frederik på morgentur - Mary and Frederik on a morning trip.
Written by Trine Larsen.

The article is clearly based on the photos by Jesper Sunesen.

Last Friday morning M&F and Ziggy were seen returning to Amalienborg, where the flags were flying due to Joachim's birthday.
Mary was wearing a blue kneelong summer dress and sunglasses, while riding a Nihola bike. Frederik walked next to her in shorts and a blue polo. Both were carrying coffee cups.
They were chatting and it is assumed in the article that they were returning after delivering the twins in the kindergarten.
A group of early tourists got a surprise when they noticed who was passing by.

Then it was off to work, sort off, because 28 minuttes later Frederik handed out grants at Amalienborg from Crown Prince Frederik Foundation. - This time more correctly dressed.

I'll leave it to the locals to inform us whether there is a coffeeshop or something similar along Amaliegade or at Sankt Annæ Square - because then we may presume this is where M&F got their coffee.

Thank you, Muhler :flowers: I noticed Vincent and Josephine's helmets in the basket, so yes they have most probably just delivered them in the kindergarten. As always, I am pleased to see our crown prince family live so normally a family life despite the fact that they are the future king and queen. It's nice!

Here are pictures... A little sidenote: The journalist also mentions that Frederik gallant and fondly gave Mary a couple of push while she cycled (pic 5) :blush:

Ok I have to say this. She's got talent. Bicycle + coffee + dress! For me that would equal disaster! A bicycle plus anything else would equal disaster! Not that I'm uncoordinated, but that combo is tricky. It's also nice to see them like this.
 
You are welcome, Polyesco. :)

Thanks for the co-operation, Roskilde. :flowers:

Weeell, I suspect Frederik's curteous push was more likely a disguised pad in Mary's behind. :p

BB is up.

A story from Ekstra Bladet Ekstra Bladet - Dynamoen drillede Mary: Cyklede hjem i mørke

About Mary having been out with her friend Caroline Fleming Wednesday at restaurant Geist, after which she walked Caroline Fleming back to Hotel D'Angleterre, where she is currently staying.

Mary had opted to go by bike and when it was time to return home it was dark. (Relatively speaking, as darkness set in around 22.30 at this time of year, and it's only really dark past 23.00). A distance which I understand is about 1.5 KM.
Okay shortly after having started on her homeward bound, she discovered her dynamo was out of order and there was no lights on her bike. She tried to fix it, but no luck. So she continued home to Amalienborg without light. - However, her escorting PET officer had no lights on his bike at all...

The fine for driving without lights on your bike after dark is 700 DKK. But being a member of the DRF, Mary can't be fined.
Anyway, with a police escort it's hardly a big issue and there are such things a streetlights in Copenhagen. :p
Ekstra Bladet tries to angle the story so that people should feel offended by this breach of the law, but even their own readers don't buy that one.

The correct procedure would of course be for Mary to get off her bike and walk the kilometre and a half back to Amalienborg, buuut I somehow suspect PET would much prefer she covered that distance as fast as possible.

It's incidentally Mary's PET officer who is photographing Mary and Caroline Fleming.

Maybe a bit off topic, but while searching for one of Mary's fans pages on Facebook I came across a girl's status. She writes she this morning went just wide of Mary and Frederik who came riding together past her.. The interesting thing is that it was in Fredensborg. Maybe they use the Kancellihuset at the weekends? Or maybe they just drive to there to ride and enjoy nature of course.

In Europe it's very rare to see cyclists with helmets. Her in Belgium I often see small children with a helmet when cycling to school - but I live in a densily populated city with traffic that's just mad ... In quieter places even the kids don't wear helmets.

I can very well imagine them using their Fredensborg residence in the weekends and during quieter times. they'd be mad not to use it with their small children :) Such a wonderful park!!
