According to the article, Prince Joachim especially enjoyed the concert because he played piano until he was 14. William Watney is a pianist from the US. He also spent some time (Watney) teaching the children at the local high school in Tonder.

Really like Marie's outfit, but more important they look relaxed, happy to be their, and happy to be together

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #15, 2010.
Joachim og Marie til ræs med Prinserne - Joachim and Marie racing with the Princes.
Written by Ulrik Ulriksen.

La Marie and all her boys, except Bette Henrik (*), went to the Carlsberg races, where you could buy a ride in a racing car for between 400 and 4.000 DKK. The money, more than two million went to Red Cross.
Princess Marie and her family went for rides in a couple of Mercedes and a very cool and extremely expensive Bugatti. - At speeds up to 150-180 kilometres per hour. Vroom!!
Nikolai is very much his father's son in regards to cars and racing and they spend a good deal of time together, while Felix being smaller, was taken well care of by Marie. And after three hours among roaring engines Felix was pretty beat when they all left.

(*) Bette Henrik is Jutlandic dialect. Bette means wee or small and it's used about persons, things and events.
I use it as an endearment but also to distinguish between Prince Henrik senior and the new young Henrik.

According to DR1 http://www.dr.dk/Nyheder/Indland/2010/05/05/05202246.htm

La Marie and her Joachim will on Saturday 8. May hand over the award for being the most blooming village. An award being handed out for the first time. The award will be presented to the village of Bregninge on the picturesque island of Ærø.

The award is actually meant as an appreciation for being the most enterprising village in regards to attractting newcommers, businesses and so on. The opposite in fact of what is happening these years in many areas of DK. - People are leaving. Businesses move out to the cities. Youths move away and stay away when they have completed their education. That leaves the old, people on social welfare and those who didn't get an education and not much more.
As such many villages have gone into hibernation with many empty houses, nothing to do, no future.
Some villages have as such lost their status as a village because the population has dropped. They now consists of two houses, a farm, a barn, an outhouse and a shed for chickens. Roughly speaking of course.

Some villages have been working hard to reverse that development and a few succeed. Like Bregninge.
So all sorts of people will turn up at this event, because the issue of the rural parts of Denmark being depopulated is very much a political issue right now. We will be lucky if we will even get a glimpse of M&J for all the politicians who will be very eager to be seen.

Bregninge is located on an island south of Funen among the most idyllic and scenic places in Denmark. A number of Danish versions of what the Germans call Heimatfilms were made there. It's about two hours by car from Schackenborg.
Schackenborg is located in Tønder municipality which face the same problems with depopulations as other parts of rural Denmark.
It's quite natural, I think, that Joachim will deal with this. He lives in such an area and he specialise in commerce and enterprise.

Denmark now basically consists of the greater Copenhagen area. The entire east coast of Jutland that has evolved into a kind of mini-Ruhr gebiet and the city of Esbjerg which deals with off-shore industry.
The city of Aalborg in the north in in serios danger of being forgotten. Odense on the island of Funen is a place you pass through while driving to or from Copenhagen/eastern Jutland.
Everything else? A few cows, industrial farms, semi-abandoned villages, windmill parks and colonies of summer cottages. That's development...

Does anyone know where I can find information on Prince Joachim and Princess
Marie's wedding? I didn't see it on the wedding thread, but I may have passed over it.
