And here is a 74 pic gallery from a link in Aarhus Stiftstidende, submitted by the readers.

We start off in Stauning at the air museum and the pics are chronological.

Was this an opening of a walk around event then a conference? Because Mary is not seen in any of the polfoto pictures which makes me think she did not attend the discussion/talks session.

I read now, that there was a dinner on November 7, which I think Mary did attend. The event is not listed on the calendar for November 7.

Mary and Frederik are tonight Saturday invited to the birthdayparty, sort of, of the Guards Hussars Regiment at Anvorskov Barracks in Vordingborg. (About an hour or so from Rigshospitalet).

The regiment turned 396 years the other day and that is being celebrated with a party tonight.

Frederik served at the Guards Hussars as a new lieutenant. He was back then in charge of a recce platoon. The Guards Hussars is a light cavalry (now light armoured) regiment.

The party tonight is not to be mistaken for the yearly traditional party in the regiment, which is held in February and in which Queen Margrthe nearly always takes part.

I doubt we will see pictures from the party tonight and if we are I suggest you keep an eye on this link: Gardehusarregimentets 396 årsdag

The Guards Hussars is a combat regiment and last week the 39th Danish soldier was killed in Afhanistan, albeit from the Royal Lifeguard Regiment.

Mary looks gorgeous.......I believe we have some babies coming........!!!

[Aotearoagal]

I think she looks a little lost and lonely, actually. I hope her sister arrives soon to help out ... and I hope they've found one or two Danish mothers of twins to help advise Mary on what to expect ...

[Terri Terri]

Lost and lonely? I don't see that! I think CP Mary looks glowing, healthy and gorgeous. I hope that there are Danish mothers and fathers of twins who are helping to advise both Mary and Frederik on what to expect. Yes, Mary is the one who's pregnant and the mother gets most of the attention, but both she and Frederik are going through this first time experience of expecting twins together. They both must be increasingly anxious, especially as the birth becomes nearer. Anyway, Mary's father and step-mother will be spending Christmas with them. Maybe after Christmas, one or both of her sisters can visit her.

[Aotearoagal]

You don't see it? She's sort of left standing there for a moment or two, and I think she looks a little bewildered. Women in the last stages of pregnancy I think really need to be sheltered, they look so vulnerable. She certainly rushes to Fred's side the moment his hand is extended. Perhaps a choreography lapse, but I do hope she is being given the option of not attending events if she isn't feeling up to it. Duty can wait till next year! And the year after .... and the year after .... and the year after that ........

[FasterB]

I don´t see that as "lost and lonely" either. She stands, as any other woman would do, patiently while CP Frederik is doing the honour thing and then she walks to the side of CP Frederik when she is supposed too and not before.

How can you see that as "lost and lonely"?

CP Frederik went off do review the guard of honor, that's all...we just didn't see it on the video. And as CP Mary was standing there waiting until CP Frederik finished, her lady-in-waiting & private secretary Tanja and another officer in uniform stepped up beside her.

Anyway, CP Mary has one more engagement next week (Nov 23) at Fredensborg. After that, she doesn't have any other public engagements...so it looks as though she will be on maternity leave.

I completely agree. It's quite obvious the CP Frederick was off doing official duties and she was just waiting. She actually looked happy and relaxed. It was actually quite refreshing when she was standing there and CP Frederick reached out for her hand...her look was like "Oh, okay" Those two are in their own world, and it's such a pleasure to see

I love how the cameraperson focuses on her pregnant belly...what did he expect the twins to do...jump out!?!?!?!?!

Seriously? This isn't her first pregnancy where she has been to official engagements. If anything she has the experiences of the past two pregnancies.

If she was feeling 'vulnerable' or not up to it, don't you think an educated woman in her late thirties can say no?

[ashelen]

Mary looks stunning! I love that color of blue and thinks it suits her very well. Pregnancy really agrees with her and I can't wait for the twins to get here.

[Aotearoagal]

Terri, thanks for the heads-up about the guard of honour. It would have been good to see that review footage - a line of handsome blokes in uniform saluting!
