According to the official calender, the Danish royal family is in residence at Fredensborg Palace, and last night, March 26, the traditional torch light ceremony took place to welcome them home (or back.)

Today is the queen's birthday Does this mean we will get a balcony apperance by the royal family? I assume Nikolai and Felix will be missing, since last year they were on the baclony, or do they get to be with their father around this time again?

 

[Mandy]

Queen Margrethe's balcony appearance will be posted in "Queen Margrethe's Birthday: April 16" thread.

Happy posting!

Royal Photos by Madeleine Glindorf

madeleine glindorf shares her special talent with some fantastic photos. my favorite's are #21,22, 24 and 25, it looks like he's posing especially for her! the others on photo sites don't compare to madeleine's fine eye.

Prince Christian is so cute! He looks just like his grandfather, Prince Henrik. Both of them seemed to have a lot of fun. I like that when Prince Henrik has more "fun" official events, he sometimes takes his grandchildren. I know he took Prince Nikolai to something like this two or three years ago.

 

[princess leonor]

OMG he is soo adorable!!! He has grown so much and has clearly lost his baby face, quite a beautiful little man

 

[queenofcelts]

Christian is precious! He will be a heart-thromb one day.

I love that Henrik seems to have a good relationship with his grandchildren. I have seen photo's of him on outings with Nikolai and Felix several times and Nikolai sat on his knee at the wedding last month.

Christian looks lovely

Prince Christian helped his grandfather with his royal duties - in opening the new elephant house in the Copenhagen Zoo. He received a stuffed toy-elephant for his trouble

Prince Henrik mentioned in his speech that he's hoping for more grandchildren.

 

[kimlan]

Thank Madeleine for the lovely pictures.

Prince Christine is very handsome young man. No doubt he will be a heart-throb one day. Also, he looks so well behavior for his age.

June 10:
11am
The Prince Consort will participate, as patron of Zoo in Copenhagen, in the inauguration of the new Elefanthus.

Since this was an event that included 2 members of the family, ive posted it in this thread.

Picture from BT and BT part 2 Henrik looks outof place in a white/ish suit & Christian looks very cute. It was nice of P.Henrik to take Christian to this event.
Madeleine G has a few lovely pictures as well

 

[amina1]

he's the cutest! out with grandpa

 

[Rebafan81]

It is nice seeing Grandpa spending time with Christian like he has always done with the other two boys. It probably makes Christian feel like a big boy. Does Christian have a nickname or do they call him Christian?

 

[Hanna Regina]

That toy-elephant was surely a hit, Christian really seemed to like it! He must be a very patient little boy, these events can be tiresome for a little one. He's only two-and-a-half years old and so mature! Such a sweetheart...

 

[morhange]

This is Christian's first official duty, isn't it? Everything else is just family events (weddings, christenings, etc) and photoshoots, but this is the first time that the future king has actually gone to an event like this, isn't it?

And Christian is so adorable! He looks a little bit like his mom, but I can see a lot of Felix in him too! I think he resembles Mary, but also I think he's a lot like Prince Joachim (with the bright blonde hair as a little boy), while Isabella is all Frederik.

 

[dee4855]

My goodness he looks just like Prince Henrik. He is such an adorable little boy. How wonderful that Mary and Fredrick let him spend such quality time with his grandparents.

 

[JessRulz]

Oh, Christian is so adorable! How grandfatherly of Henrik to take Christian with him for this event - I love the one of the pair looking through the glass wall. And the one of Christian clapping. And the one of him scrunching up his face....

 

[Madame Royale]

This family exudes such warmth and spontaneity. What a family to be a part of, I reckon......I endeavour to sight that they have well and truly established a balance between royal and familial life and an assimilation of the two comes with great ease.

Christian is certainly his mothers son. The resemblance is very strong indeed!

 

[UserDane]

Have you seen the new elephant house which prince Christian helped his grandpa open yesterday? Zoo architecture | Culture | guardian.co.uk - by Foster and Partners. The Indian elephants at the Copenhagen Zoo are said to enjoy their new house immensely; it is more than five times the size of the former old elephant house. I'm really looking forward to see it.

 

[Madame Royale]

Wonderful avatar, UserDane...

I quite like the glass dome. Is there any greenery inside the enclosure at all?
