More pics from Saturday...
Check out the purse, in Pic #3, its nice but doesn't go with the whole ensemble. In fact, I found the whole look to be somewhat confused, some pieces were formal like the skirt and shoes and some pieces casual like the cap, handbag and the top.

She certainly seems fond of caps that she can pull down in her face... I understood it when she was trying to protect her privacy before she got engaged, but after the marriage she is a public person. I also might understand it if she wore it in Denmark when she was trying to be a private person, but this is an official visit...

Mary wasn't wearing the hat for the whole day... not even for most of the day. What happened was (well I'm pretty sure this is what happened) she went "shopping" with Amber Petty, had lunch at a restaurant, got "rescued" by old friend Hamish Cambell (her and Amber got besieged by photographers so they requested Hamish to pick them up in the boat he was in) and then they went to the yacht club to meet up with Fred who was doing some sailing). Anyway, it was only after she met up with Frederik that she started wearing a cap.... I think she actually took Frederik's hat and started wearing it.
It's kind of sweet actually... its like at school when you take your boyfriend's school tie and start wearing it, hehehe....

Where are they staying?
Mary and Frederik are staying on the 34th floor of the hotel directly behind, and partly obscured by, the yacht's sail.
The other two tallest buildings are apartments, the third and lowest is an hotel.
The large white building needs no description.

The Cap - a simple explanation
Most likely she wore the cap to keep the sun off her face.
A sunburnt Crown Princess is not a good look.

What is so official about sitting barefeet on a boat that Mary wouldn't be allowed to wear a cap?

I agree with you Warren. The sun out there would have been very bright.
