You may be right (and not that it's a big deal), but I think it's just a ordinary scarf. You can see his shirt bulges out.

I want to believe it, Frederik has better style than that ;)

Good heavens, I fear you are right. :eek:

This is how a proper charmeklud should look: GaryCooper-6-1940.jpg (image) or

:previous: I see Mary is wearing a shawl. How is the temperature in Mexico City at this time of year?
 
Mary on day 2; the dress is almost ugly, and I'm very surprised Mary should choose a dress like that!

I see the temperature in Mexico City today was 55 degrees Fahrenheit (which is, I believe, around 12 degrees Celsius. Definitely shawl weather.
 
It that's the afternoon temperature, it's definitely not warm!
 
Remarkable how much the first lady resembles Mary. They have exactly the same style, but the first lady pushes the profesional look even further (the smile, the hair...)

Well she was an actress and has been in the public eye for a loooong time

Not only that, we've had rain all afternoon!

Pretty cool.

It's 8-10 degrees C here in DK today, for comparison. So no wonder Mary wrapped the shawl around her.
 
Just seen Frederik and Mary in the morning news and it showed a clip of how many media there follows the visit. I would guess there was 40-50 photographers and journalists around them.

I saw somewhere a Mexican woman write this about M+F being in her country:

"It's exciting to see that my favorite royal couple is becoming increasingly popular in my country. There has been nothing but great comments and about M & F in Mexican media. I sure hope that the crown prince couple is enjoying Mexico as much as we are enjoying having them here."


I see the temperature in Mexico City today was 55 degrees Fahrenheit (which is, I believe, around 12 degrees Celsius. Definitely shawl weather.

Not higher, and I thought Mexico was warm and sunny all year round, but okay, I'm just a typical Dane who think all other countries than Denmark have sun and warmth the year round :p

But 12 degrees is not much and I understand Mary hugged her shawl. I do read that their first day was sunny and about 22 degrees :)



Thanks polyesco :flowers:

That's again a recycled dress, from the Olympic last year, I think.

Hope we will have more pictures from the dinner.

Don't get me wrong, even though my admiration for her is somewhat limited... it's only meant as a description and a cultural exchange. ;)

That's an interesting sculpture in pic 12.

Could it be Rodin? It certainly reminds me of his work... How I wish European art would stay in Europe :sad:

But back to topic... Mary looked wonderful in her red dress. Her hairdresser has done a great job again! Watching the video, it occured to me that it must have been a very long day for F&M since neither of them speak Spanish. Most of the time they had to sit there and look interested. Glad it's not my job! ;)
 
Day 3
Frederik at the Museum of Technology ( MUTEC ) , where he held a seminar on energy and energy resources. His Royal Highness was received by the Director General of the Federal Electricity Commission , Francisco Rojas, and was attended by officials from the Ministry of Climate and Energy of Denmark . The meeting aimed to exchange experiences and knowledge in the energy sector , especially in Mexico to achieve greater production of healthy energy.

They should have seated some ladies at the table with Mary. At least that's what I think.

We don't have terrible winters like you do in Europe, this is a very cold day for us, also it is very very humid. Mexico City its at 2200 meters over the sea level so it is not really hot like some other regions and it doesn't really fall in the sterotype of hot desertic land .
I've heard germans and russians complain about Mexico city's cold. Since our temperatures don't go that low, central heating or double windows are rare thing in Mexico city's buildings.


I'm thrilled they came and a bit sad I had to work all this three days :(

How interesting that THR are at the museo Soumaya, owned by one of the world's richest men, Carlos Slim (who also owns a large share in the New York Times). Can Mexican members comment about Slim's politics and whether this royal visit will have an effect on Slim's image in his country:flowers:

Actually I think they only met Slim's daughter and his son in-law who designed the Soumaya new museum whcih displays part of the collection of the Slim family.

Slim owns several companies incluiding the national telephone one and the biggest celular company, a bank, two department store chains and many more things.

I don't think the danish visit will do much or not for Slim's figure in Mexico, I think he dated Queen Noor a few years ago, and there was not too much gossip about it. He is quite discreet about his personal life and has the image of a devoted widower. So, a stop of the danish royals in his museum I don't think will do much about his image, he is a king in his own right

He is appparently not much into politcs, though, he had a little battle with other two tycoons on communications, other than that he is a bit laid back and focused on his business entreprises.

I leave you a link with his bio if you are intrested. Carlos Slim Helú .
