The one thing I find silly with the court calendar is putting Sofia (and to the extent Carl Philip) on the event docket at the last minute. With the Royal Couple and the Crown Princess Couple you know what they're going to be doing at least a month in advance. Scheduling Carl Philip and Sofia this way makes it look like the court is trying to find them something to do. Filling in at the last minute when the original royal can't make it is one thing; this is ridiculous.

@Lady Finn - Sofia should have had the Seraphim sooner, at least a month after her marriage to Carl Philip. If she does have the Seraphim she should be wearing the order ribbon on Nicolas' christening (the one with the king's picture on it). I'm surprised she hasn't been given an order by this time.
 
Putting people on the calendar quite late isn't something that's constricted to CP and Sofia. It happens quite often with other members of the family.

The miniature portrait of the king is the unofficial "family order" of the swedish royal family. It is delivered to the women of the royal family. The portrait is attached to a bow in Seraphim light blue ribbon.
When princess Lilian had the Order of the Polar Star (she got the Order of the Seraphim only in 1995), she wore the miniature portrait of the king at the Seraphim light blue ribbon like all the women of the royal family. So you don't have to have the Order of the Seraphim to be able to wear the miniature portrait.

Princess Lilian's miniature portrait was smaller than queen Silvia's, Victoria's and Madeleine's.

The royal expert told during Carl Philip and Sofia's wedding broadcast, that the frames of the miniature portraits are recycled, so maybe Sofia gets Lilian's portrait.

It is totally natural that the calendar is updated sometimes with a short notice.

What's that long chain that Bertil has hanging down his chest?

I think it is this:

According to prince Bertil's page in Wikipedia he had
- Illis Quorum i guld av 18:e storleken med kedja från 1969 (Illis Quorum in gold of the 18th size with chain 1969)
https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prins_Bertil

Info about Ilis Quorum
https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illis_Quorum

At this page is a medal made to prince Bertil

Thanks for the info Lady Finn. I thought the ribbon and the sash are one in the same. Madeleine's and Lillian's portraits look the same, but different in size. The ribbons are different in design as well -Silvia and Victoria's ribbons form an "x" and Madeleine's and Lillian's look like a bar straight across. Do status and succession order affect the different size portraits and ribbon design?

The frames of the portraits of Madeleine and Lilian aren't similar. Madeleine has a little "crown" on the top of the frame. Madeleine's ribbon is more like a bow than Lilian's.

We have to also remember, that this concert was an official work event to Carl Philip and Sofia. Victoria and Daniel were privately at U2 concert.

always criticize for criticizing, it becomes pathetic, when she puts her hand on the thigh of her husband, then she goes too far, my god it is a scandal. Here is not PDA, do you.

Follow those you enjoy (victoria and daniel) and let others live.
 
Not a lot of people out for this visit. Is it because it's early?
 
The reporter of Dt told that they had been told that Carl Philip and Sofia will bake at the next place and that they will get a lot of good and funny photos there.
