Lovely photos Mary is always very tactile with the children I think a lot of cuddles are part of this family’s life

Wow, Isabella looks really tall in this photo - she'll overtake Mary in regards to height soon.
Love the photos of the children by the water fountain as well. Forgive me if this has been asked before, but I'm presuming the children are bilingual? |
I believe so. This article https://julietrieden.files.wordpress...ctober-aww.pdf indicates that Princess Isabella introduced herself to the interview crew in perfect English, and on her first day of school, Princess Josephine indicated that English was the class she was most looking forward to.

Today the family went to visit the historical site Port Arthur, with Mary's sisters Jane and Patricia and friend Amber Petty (wow all three bridesmaids).
The short article also mentions that they are in fact staying in the Government House.

Yes it's so lovely to see. Always lots of loving kiss, hugs, and cuddling.
It's indeed some delightful pictures and they all look so happy to visit mom's home country. But now leave the dear family alone. Or as the Tasmanian people wishes on the Mercury's Facebook:
"Welcome home Mary and family. It must be so nice to be able to go wandering in your home town.I love how they just get on with stuff just like us. So please can the media just give her a little break. And let them be a family home to celebrate Xmas. Show them Tassie has class and respect."
https://www.facebook.com/themercury....56057737948408
"You can take the girl out of Tasmania but not Tasmania out of our Mary."
She may be a princess, but Mary is still just down to earth as she mingled with the locals at Salamanca.

A very Merry Christimas to F&M and children, The Family Donaldson, and to all your members

I agree with those who have said that this family is very "love and cuddles" orientated, which is lovely to see - those folks who disagree on other anti-Mary forums must be looking at a different family because I saw nothing but affection amongst everyone in these recent photos from Australia.

Thank you for confirming that. Cute to hear that Josephine said she was looking forward into studying English the most - hopefully the class lived up to her expectations! The children will most likely have an advantage over other pupils in the class when it comes to English having an English speaking mother.

According to the Mercury, Mary and family are again out on the beach this morning.
So far I can only see Mary, Frederik, Christian, Isabella and Vincent in the photos. The weather seems amazing in Hobart, the photos are great.

 It seems that I need to subscribe to see the photos, as I can't see them.

Thank you to everyone who shared the photos - looked as if the family have had a lovely time in Australia. The beaches look beautiful.

About the Mary Foundation? Not an "exclusive interview" then, but a translation of the Danish Ud &Se interview in connection with the 10th anniversary of Mary Fonden ?? 
The photo on the cover is the same as the one Ud & Se used a few months ago.

Still interesting though as it was one of the more intelligent articles about Mary and the Mary Foundation.

Yes, it was and nothing wrong with a translation of an intelligent article written by the reporter from Ud & Se.
I was referring to this Juliet Riedens "Read my exclusive interview with Crown Princess Mary" and "The Australian Women's Weekly" exclusive interview with Mary".

Don't tell Polyesco about the Frederik-article, she'll start howling.
