Thanks, Iceflower
I cannot help wondering whether some of QMII's latest headgear contain some kind of communication or tracking devices.
An article about the event from Jyllands Posten:
Den Gamle By åbner nyt skatkammer
QMII was bascally inauguration a new vault for the most precious items displayed at Den Gamle By = The Old Town, a museum in Aarhus.
The museum has a large collection os valuable articles that are connected to, and could be found, in a wealthy merchant town up to 300 years ago. These items are now much more secure.
Den Gamle By consists of a number of buildings gathered from all over the country. These buildings have been moved here or rebuilt here, so that it resembles a merchant town as it would have looked like 150-300 years ago.
Recently new buildings have been added so that a part of the area resemble a street anno 1960 or so. Yes, 1960 is becoming the "good old days". You know, back when the sun always shined from a bright clear sky during summer and it always snowed at Christmas. When crooks were fairly decent crooks and the police always got their man. - At least in the movies...
In short: This would be an event where QMII would certainly
not have to be dragged kicking and screaming.
Margrethe appears to have had a fieldday!

First the inauguration in the Old Town, but also a closer look at various items there, which have not yet been displayed in public.
No need to rush to the Old Town is there? She popped by Aros on the way. Aros is the largest art muesum in Aarhus, and had a look at an exhibition of painting by Asger Jorn, then up to the roof of the museum to see an exhibition, and probably enjoying the view as well, of another exhibition which has not yet been opened to the public.
In fact no one knew QMII would drop by and an elderly gentleman almost bumped into Margrethe at the entrance, because he hadn't noticed her.

Here is a neat gallery of QMII in The Old Town:

The man with the red and white tie behind her is the mayor, Nikolai Wammen, he would so much like to become a minister, if the oppostion wins the next election.
