As we know Frederik always has Greenland close to his heart, today via the DRF Facebook page he has sent a greeting to Greenland for their national day.

"A warm*greeting to*everyone in*Greenland*on*the national day.
HRH*The*Crown Prince*sends a greeting*and*this*photo that*the Crown Prince*had*taken
during his visit to*Ilulissat*earlier this year."

And another surprise visit, from the DRF Facebook
H.K.H. Crown Prince Frederik has just visited the American aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman who currently find themselves in the Mediterranean.
In his short visit the prince was able to experience the ship which is currently on a mission, but also the base for more than 6.000 crew members.

:previous: What on earth is Frederik doing down there?

No Danish ships based there at the moment.

Sailing perhaps?

Or on holiday with the family?
 
Or just going there because he can and he just is a big boy? ;) ;) ;)
 
I'm thinking maybe the family is vacationing somewhere near . Frederik had an event on Saturday and will have one this Friday July 1st, but the kids are on vacation and Mary's calendar is clear for the moment.

In the event with the new helicopters, wasn't there a US general there, maybe Frederik got an invite to the ship?

Frederik was part of a Danish delegation lead by Rufus Gifford, the U.S Ambassador to Denmark. This was Sunday.
 
Thanks, Nordic. :flowers:

There are always someone in the know.
 
There is a large naval exercise taking place in the Pacific near Hawaii, with 26 nations participating. Denmark is one of them, so at least one of your ships is there.
www.public.navy.mil/surfor/Page 26-Nations-to-Participate-in-worlds-largest-maritime-exerciseaspx#V3J1fWretr. If that ridiculously long link doesn't work, you can access it via the Huffington Post, US edition - politics section.

Since we're off-topic anyway, it sounds as though the Olympics in Rio are beset with problems. Since Frederik is a member of the IOC, is he getting any flak about this? I wonder if he voted for Rio.
 
Thanks, MidwestMom. :flowers:

There are always someone who knows...

No he isn't.
Partly I think because he can't be held responsible for the mess in Rio, and partly because it's the holiday season, and partly again because other news dominate right now.
 
How exciting to be invited onto an aircraft carrier. I know I wouldn't turn it down.
 
:previous: Me neither.
It would more difficult to drag me off again!

Rio was chosen at the same IOC session in Copenhagen where Frederik was voted member of the IOC. I don't think he would have had a vote at that point.
I remember it because former President Lula of Brazil was so happy, that he gave Frederik a big hug when arriving to a reception hosted by the DRF.
All the other guests were of course shaking hands.
 
 
Thanks everybody for the pictures of Frederik's last event :flowers:

Now it must be time (well deserved) for Frederik and Mary to go on full summer holiday.

The Danish Pavilion has been met with great success. Nice that the DRF has been involved
 
:previous:
"On Ipanema Beach in Rio de Janeiro was the Danish Pavilion Monday hit on a Danish trade promotion, as Dansk Industri is helping to organize the Olympic games.

Hrh Crown Prince Frederik and Business and Growth Minister Troels Lund Poulsen, Foreign Minister, Kristian Jensen and some danish companies were among the many participants to the event.

:previous: and while there have been a number of articles regarding this event, Danish Sustainability Day in Rio; so far the DRF pr have dropped the ball by not including any pictures from this event in their website or social media :bang:
again its the "suit-and-tie" events

a few more articles. the danish Pavilion has made a big impact. Not only was the crown prince present but also various Danish and Brazilian ministers
https://di.dk/dibusiness/nyheder/Pages/Danske-virksomheder-til-OL-i-branding-paa-Ipanema.aspx
"Precisely here met business and growth minister Troels Lund Poulsen, HRH Crown Prince Frederik, Foreign Minister Kristian Jensen and a series of large Danish companies - with representatives of the Brazilian authorities and the City of Rio Monday to tell and show what Denmark can be compared to public-private partnerships.
Business and Growth Minister Troels Lund Poulsen, explains that the Brazilian authorities are very interested in sustainable development and energy efficiency solutions, including in relation to their water sector and infrastructure. And here, Danish companies have much to offer."

Crown Prince Frederik has today held the weekly public audience at Christiansborg Palace.

CP Frederik is Denmark's regent these weeks, while the Queen is out of the country.

Offentlig audiens | Kongehuset

(The DRF's court has off course not bothered to add Frederik's name in the calender at today's audience.....)
