it's kind of a funny twist that somebody who has taken part in some demanding sledge expeditions actually fractures his leg whilst riding a sleigh with his kids

Hola!'s article. It says he was supposed to leave today but they'll keep him another day... probably that is why the news got out

It is rather funny actually - not meant in a mean way though.

Frederik can now join the legions of Danes who return from skiing holidays with fractures. One of the Danish insurance companies run a pick-up service for Danes who get hurt on skiing holidays which is popularly known as the 'bone express'

He had the surgery in Denamrk when he returned from Miami.
Thats why he couldn't race in Miami.

Can't see why not, it is just a cast and he can probably use crutches but I would say he would have to have a shot of a blood thinner before the plane trip.

I wrote the same, but my post seem to have disappered somewhere into the universe.

Anyway I hope he recovers as soon as possible. My hope is not only substantiatede in CP Frederiks health, to whom I am a faithfull subject as a Dane, but also in the hope that my original comment on his accident ( being kind of funny) - repeated in the parenthesist will not be deleted!!!

(And while writing this I am sitting about 500 meters away from his hospitalbed - as this is how close my appartment is to the hospital in which he is recovering.)

I hope that CP Frederik recovers quickly! Poor Frederik. Fractures can be quite painful.

[Lady Claire]

I was wondering why he had a brace on his left foot (picture) in Miami.
I wonder why he had to stay an extra day?
I hope he recovers fast!

Christian looks like he is having fun jumping over the tape and looks like he didnt want to get into the car in the last few pictures. Isabella is growing up so fast. Mary looks tired but nice. Thanks for the link

[lumutqueen]

Your right Isabella is growing up fast :)
And i hope Prince Frederik returns home safely today :)

Yeah... For the pics, of course, I'm under the impression Christian is a little bit of a brat. Could it be the age?

[bertie5252003]

I am under that same impression avrilo... and this obviously not be a popular thing to say but have had these thoughts for a while now. Hopefully it is his age Prince William was a bit of a brat for quite a time and look at the darling he now is. It must be difficult for Mary to bring her children up in an enviroment that is one she herself has not a huge amount of experience in. I hope things are ok there though time will tell. Parents inthis particulas time have a tough time I think all this drama that goes on explaining to 3 4 and 5 yr olds no one seems to want to take matters and be in charge however I am off topic and will get a telling off. I agree with you.

[Duke of Marmalade]

the danish children are pretty much in focus, we see them much more in "everyday" situations than the other royal children - who probably throw the same kind of tantrums but out of the public eye. i don't see christian behaving differently to other kids of his age out there.

isabella is sensational, beyond cute!

[biboquinhas]

Yes and I think that is marvellous and that is very good for their behaviour and knowlege of the real world... However I suppose that other Royal children are not in everyday situation has theese two are and they live mucht more close in their "castle" than these two!!!!! We never seen them going outside and I'am talking more about for example Leonor and Sofia, we seen them twice or three times a year!!!!!!
