:previous:It's June, not May ?

I was apparently too tired and/or able to do more than one thing at the time, of course it's June. :lol:

What a wonderful welcome with the carriage ride and band

Nothing beats a proper Royal Family when it comes to the ceremonial role of the Head of State ( the carriage ride, the welcome reception, the white tie state dinner, etc.) .
 
The president met The Speaker of the Riksdag, Andreas Norlén. King Carl Gustaf attended too.

No, Chris was present at the 2017 Canadian State Visit. I believe that was his first time.

What a wonderful welcome with the carriage ride and band

Absolutely its a shame that so may other monarchies such as Spain and Belgium use motorcades rather than carriages (which they have an ample supply of) & are are now sadly more or less redundant museum pieces in this green friendly age.
 
The king, queen, the president and the First Lady participated in an unveiling of a memorial at Djurgården for Swedish veterans who served at the Red Cross Hospital during the Korean War. The king and the president also planted a tree.

King Carl Gustaf said at his speech at the state dinner among other things:
Mr President, you are a few years younger than me. But I think you agree with me that the longer you live, the more you understand how to value long-term friendships.
Such a friendship unites our two countries. This year we celebrate 60 years of diplomatic relations. But our bands go even further back than that. Already in the late 1800s Swedish missionaries, journalists and explorers began to find the Korean peninsula.
My grandfather, King Gustaf VI Adolf, was the first public person in Sweden who was interested in Korean art and archeology. For us grandchildren, he gladly told about his trip to Korea in 1926, when he and Crown Princess Louise went there to participate in excavations.
During his lifetime he donated a number of objects to the East Asian Museum here in Stockholm, and these are the objects that form the basis of the Korean collection which today is preserved at the museum. Thanks to our common Korean Database Project you can now also see the collection online. A fine example of how digitization can help to show a valuable cultural heritage.(...)
In this context, should also be a mention made of the nearly 1,000 Swedes who have served in the demilitarized zone of Panmunjom, in the service of peace and security since 1953, within the framework of the Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission. I myself have strong memories of previous visits and when the Queen and I visited this place in connection with the state visit to the Republic of Korea 2012.
A few years later, in 2015, the Crown Princess couple also visited your country. It has been extremely rewarding to discuss our plentiful impressions from these and other journeys to the Republic of Korea.

Svensk Damtidning asked from the court about the orders at the state dinner, why Victoria and Daniel didn't wear The Order of the Seraphim.
The court press department informed:
- In connection with the state visit, the Crown Princess and Prince Daniel were conferred with "The Diplomatic Service Merit, Grand Gwanghwa Medal" - one of the Republic of Korea's state orders.
Queen Silvia wore also a pink sash. First Lady Kim Jung-sook wore The Order of The Polar Star. President Moon Jae-in wore The Order of the Seraphim.
