I love her dress. Was this concert the night before the wedding of Joachim and Marie? This couple seems to have one of the busiest schedules I have ever seen.

Great photos! Does anyone know what the article said? It seems as though they must be sports fans (first Wimbledon, now this). It is nice to see that they attend a variety of events.

It says that many were surprised to see Mary and Frederik at the swim meet. The couple turned up at the last finale and that the couple attended the presentation of the nine Danish Olympic participants. The presence of the royal couple generated wild enthusiasm among the swimmers, spectators and officials.
The article goes on to thank a bunch of people and give their congrats.

Its nice to see them doing this sort of thing, unplanned apperances. I think its good for their royal profile and they may just enjoy it too!.Lovely to see them together as well.

Sorry to perhaps burst your bubble, MissJane...but I somehow think there is no such thing as an "Unplanned" appearance by royals...yes, it was not on their official calendar, yes, the swim people were surprised, but maybe this has been marked in M&F's yearly planner/diary for months in advance...we just don't know how crammed with stuff their daily lives are, little things that we deem trivial, like "wardrobe planning meeting for Beijing Olympic Trip"...but there is probably time allocated for everything in their lives...
What I am trying to say, not very succinctly, is that I feel there is no room for spontanteity in the lives of Mary and Fred...their time is blocked out to the minutes...even mealtimes, etc...but credit to them that they do it in such a way to make it "appear" spontanteous...

yes I do agree with you because I really think that they would prefer to saty at home playing with their kids insteed of beeing there, so I think that was not their choice they made that because they really think they should and that apperance will be good for the Danish swimmers!

I love Mary's outfit, smart casual and in really flattering colours. I love the way she dresses - always beautifully turned out and stylish/elegant without being 'overdone' or having labels screaming out at you

I think Mary & Fred may have thought it may be a nice way to boost morale for the swimming team pre olympics. This sort of thing goes on with other countries to boost morale of teams and good on them. You can bet Princess Anne is doing the equestrian rounds in Britain of olympic teams.

No bubble burst here Xeara, maybe my use of the word "unplanned" was used too lightly, my apologies. Maybe i should have said ' not on their official calendar'.  even if it was planned to the very last second, it was still a nice' surprise ' for the people there.
