OK, I'm sorry, but if these pictures- Marie helping little girl in wheelchair with pink crown- are not in the dictionary under " so precious and adorable you can't stand it, and your heart melts." they should be!

Thanks, Iceflower

Good grief, she speaks fast now! If she continues like that then in a few years even her accent will be imperceptible.

Alexandra speaks extremely good Danish and she mastered the language pretty early. No least helped IMO by the fact that she already spoke several languages.

Mary speaks, understands and naturally reads a considerably more advanced Danish that our Marie.
Marie on the other hand speaks a simpler and more day to day Danish, with an almost flawless grammar and pronunciation. So IMO Marie is ahead of Mary when it comes to basic grammar, pronunciation and her accent is much less obvious.

Both women speak Danish in conversation speed.

I should like to hear M&M crack a spontaneous joke, the most difficult thing to do in any new language, that would really be an indication of how advanced their mastery of Danish subtleties is.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #9, 2015.
Written by Dorte Quist.

Our Marie has been on the job too lately. When she visited Southern Jutland. To be exact the new innovation house Mind Factory in the town of Tønder, just down the road from Schackenborg.
The house has been established by ECCO, with whom both Mary and Alexandra have worked with closely before.
The innovation house is located next to Tønder Commerce High School and Business School and it's basically a workshop for the local and the students from the local schools to come and exchange, work on and develop ideas. Education being very much Marie's area.

Marie said an the inauguration of the Mind Factory: "I have lived most of my Danish life in Møgeltønder and I feel something very special for this local area.
When I moved here the area became home to me and my family and it's an area and a people who are frank and who welcomed me warmly to become a part of the region. Down here the sentence: We can and We want applies and that to me is something very special for this region in Denmark".

Marie had a chat with the students and were shown some of the ideas they had come up with and that included goofing around a bit with the students and having a good laugh.
As usual Marie exchanged a few words with the press on the way out. She wasn't going to drive by Schackenborg she explained because she had to go back to Copenhagen.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #18, 2015.
Written by Dorte Quist.

While their children remained in Aalborg Zoo, Joachim and our Marie went downtown so that Marie could become an official member of the Christian IV's Guild. The article doesn't specify what the purpose of the guild really is, but they have some interesting members on the list. Joachim, the Regent Couple, president Reagan and Walt Disney.

With Joachim sitting in the background Marie was admitted to the guild under general merriment. First the members had to walk in procession, with the left hand on the right shoulder of the person in front. But Marie must have been sleeping during the instructions because she put her hand on the left shoulder of the man in front, wrong! Hmm, then the hand on the other shoulder, or was it the other hand? Or perhaps both hands on the shoulder of the of the guy in front. Ah, the left hand on the right shoulder, got it!
The members went inside and here Marie was required to eat two red sausages and drink a cup of mead. then she was a member.
Shortly after the children with their nanny and the four legged furry creature named Apple came from the Zoo to join them, so it was time to head for the airport to fly home.

Thank you, Iceflower

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #23, 2015.
Written by Ken Richter.

Our Marie went to the sports day in the town of Aabenraa, where a number of southern Jutlandic special schools for children with mental or physical handicaps get together.
And here she took a very active part in the various events, some of them being almost a little dangerous.
One of them being a kind see how many milk-boxes stacked on top of each other you are brave enough to stand on.
One child who brave was Benjamin age ten: "I'm brave and I dare do". So he was standing on more and more milk boxes, while a teacher and Maire held his hands. In the end he was so high up that Marie had to stand on a box simply to still be able to hold his hand. She exclaimed: "I can't reach any higher".
Back on ground Marie said: "You are my hero".
Benjamin liked that! "She said I was her hero".

Marie also took part in another test, where she with ten year old Camillia, walked sideways while balancing two water filled glasses between them.

She also started a 400 meter relay run, and mingling with as many chidlren as possible.

Today, our Marie will see and take part in various exercises and demonstration by the Civil Defense on the island of Bornholm for the yearly Total Defense Day.
Prinsesse Marie til Beredskabets Dag
The purpose is to show the public what the Civil Defense is capable of and try to recruit future conscripts and volunteer members.

Marie will be sailing along the coast in search of a "missing person" as well as lifting a truck using a cushion.

The whole show with Marie is scheduled to last some 1½ hour. So I think we can expect photos in 4-5 hours from now.
