I was shocked to see this in The Tennessean, a newspaper in Nashville, Tennessee. It's from ''Brad About You," an entertainment column which contains information from Tennessean news services and other sources. U.S. newspaper generally don't cover royal families.

She's sure to give it the royal treatment
Denmark's Queen Margrethe will design the costumes and scenery for an upcoming play based on the fairy tale Thumbelina, written by Hans Christian Andersen.
The popular 64-year-old monarch has done this kind of work before. In 2001, she designed the outfits and scenery for a play inspired by three of Andersen's fairy tales.

For the first time the crew of the Royal Danish Yacht 'Dannebrog' has been photographed with both the Queen, The Prince, The Crown Prince and The Crown Princess of Denmark. Usually the Queen only has her husband, The Prince, with her on the annual photo with the 'Dannebrog'-crew. The photo was taken on the last day of the royal families, especially the Crown Prince-couple's, summer-cruise to Greenland.

New Year's Speech

Polfoto 31-12-2004 Dronning Margrethe indledte sin nytårstale med at omtale naturkatastrofen i Sydøstasien " Blandt de mange tusinde ofre er også mange danske familier, og i disse dage må vi alle føle os dybt berørt, det er de tanker, som ligger øverst hos os alle". Derefter takkede dronningen for den store interesse ved Kronprinsparrets bryllup. Men "sorrig og glæde de vandre til hobe" - og ingen familie undgår tunge tider fortsatte dronningen og omtalte skilsmissen mellem Prins Joachim og Prinsesse Alexandra. Talen sluttede med "Gid år 2005 må blive et år med solstrejf selv på de mørkeste dage, og hvor glæden må tændes gang på gang, hvor sår må læges, og hvor vi kan række hinanden hånden, så at revner og sprækker ikke bliver til afgrunde".
