Ah, those are great, thanks Jess. I'm looking forward to see more stuff about the anniversary, and if it is anything like Edinburgh Military Tattoo Festival in Scotland, it will not disappoint.

Princess Mary looks very nice in all the pictures. She is indeed a very sober and pretty person. After the initial years when she was a bit shy, she is now excited and perfectly comfortable on the events she has to be present.

This outfit is beautiful, IMO. I've always been a fan of red, black and white together.

No reason was given, just like the first event which was cancelled. Odd IMO

According to Danish Royal Watchers Joachim was pressed into saying that Marie had been unwell, this was from when they were in Germany

Well, thank heavens she was able to make it to the French Embassy engagement where she looked positively glowing and very happy.

Even in Berlin, as well as her trip to Geneva for awedding, she looked nice and perky... hmmm what happened?

Poor thing... let's hope she can finally rest for a while so she can regain her health.

I went to see the Tattoo saturday evening. It was simply fantastic. Espacially watching The Presidents Guard of Russia. This was the first time ever this guard has made an preformance outside Russia, and in the honour of our queen the music-corps was dressed in the white uniforms. But the Berlin Police Motorcykle Team were amasing as well and so was The Top Secret Drum Corps of Switzerland, The Dutch Pipes and Drums, H.M. the Kings Guard of Norway and The Swedish Army Music-corps. What was the most beautifull though was - when the Danish Royal Guard was preforming - some ordinary danish soldiers came on stage and as they marched - The Danish Music Corps played the tune, that is alwayes played in memory of soldiers lost - and everybody rose as one single trumpeter was playing from the Tower of Rosenborg Castle.

Knowing that 4 soldiers of this Corps has died in Afghanistan during the last two years - this was a very emotional moment.

The tattoo ended with fireworks having Rosenborg Castle as its setting - very beautiful.

And I saw the Queen, The Prince Consort and Princess Benedikte. Actually I was only sitting about 5 meters away from them.

A wonderfull evening indeed.

I agree. Mary looked so fantastic at this event. It sounds like everyone enjoyed themselves.
