I often visit the kongehuset website, but find that the english version has only basic information about happenings in Denmark. (So I just joined this forum to keep up to date better!)

she was in the very last days of her pregnancy

Prince Joachim to Visit Cambodia and Vietnam

On March 5-19, the Danish prince will visit various development projects in Cambodia and Vietnam as an official ‘protector’ of the organization Care Denmark.

The first stop on Prince Joachim’s humanitarian trip to Southeast Asia will be in Cambodia, where he is to visit an orphanage for children with HIV in the capital of Phnom Penh. Cambodia has the fastest growing spread of HIV, and currently 3.5 per cent of the adult population are infected. The prince will spend one week in Cambodia, also taking some time to inspect some of Danida’s agricultural aid projects.

When going to Vietnam the prince will first travel to the Vietnamese part of the Mekong Delta to see how women from the poor khmer-minority are benefiting from Care Denmark’s credit offer projects, which allows them to borrow money to jumpstart minor agricultural practices, eventually allowing them to increase their investment and support their own families. Prince Joachim will also inspect some of Care Denmark’s water sanitation projects – including a pilot project through which 1000 minor sanitation facilities pasteurize unclean water by using solar energy.

Of course, the prince will also pay visits to several private Danish companies who have invested in Vietnam with support from Danida

Pictures from Joachim and Nikolai skiing in Val Thorens in France, they were there together with one of Joachims long time friends, his 5 year old son and a nanny, Prince Felix was home with Alexandra, Joachim said he was to young to ski and would wait to he were 4 and half. He said that in the beginning Nikolai wanted to ski with Joachim but as he got better he ofcourse wanted to manage on his own

Summary in English:

QUOTE

Daddy in Love
Joachim reunited with his kids monday morning.


Monday was work as per usual for Joachim, who just has returned from Viet Nam, He met his two boys at the entrance of Krebs' School, where the nanny came walki along with his two kids, who after his divorce are living with their mother in Copenhagen. After greeting his two kids, Nikolai went inside the school, while Joachim drove his other son , Felix, to kindergarten.

- I have missed my kids, so it's lovely to be with them again, Joachim said, while he fiddled wit the safety catches to fasten Felix in his baby seat at Joachims landrover.

- How is it to be in love?

- Really good, a tanned Prince Joacim said with a big smile.

When he was asked about when he intended to meet his new love, Marie Cavallier, he replied:

- Did you really expect, I would give you an answer to that?

Before anyone else posts, I want to make it clear that this thread is only about Joachim.
Please don't bring the Joachim-Marie discussion here, such as conjecture about possible marriage/engagement.

[moosey60]

Hmmm...for some reason, I can't shake off the feeling that Joachim prefers Felix over Nikolai. I'm not saying this because those pictures show only Felix. But whenever I see pictures of Joachim with both kids, he always gravitates more towards his younger son.

[pepperann]

Really? I don't really see that. I mean it may just be that Felix is the younger one (the baby) in the family so that his dad dotes on him a little bit more, but I don't think Joachim prefers one son from the other. If you really think of it, Nikolai had his parents solely to himself for nearly 3 years. Whereas Felix has to share his parents with his brother from the very beginning and it can also be said that Nikolai now has to share his parents too. But anyway, getting back to my point...it's just maybe a little bit more affection shown to the youngest of the family, but wouldn't say it's a preference. Also, don't forget, Joachim went skiing a couple of times with Nikolai only...father-son bonding time. It's definite that Joachim and Alexandra love their kids very much and equally. =)
