You are right. And then there are all the other Danes, like me, who do not understand a word Swedish 
And it's not unusual that we look like a big question mark when we speak Danish-Swedish together  I think it's about where in the country we come from and our dialect. I have often spoken English with Swedes simply because we do not understand each other.

I'm not saying that it's easy...  But my guess is that they speak their own languages. I think that they've gotten some language training that includes swedish, danish and norwegian. I learned a bit danish in school, and they are about my age, so I guess they also got that in school.

Mary looks absolutely stunning today -- both her daytime and evening looks. Victoria -- boring day look. Her evening look is just a mess!

I think so too. We may try to see if we can listen which language they speak together in some of the coming video clips

since both CP and sofia and frederik and mary are HRHs, there is no need for CP and sofia to curtsy, regardless of the fact that frederik and mary are a crown princely couple.

Svensk Damtidning writes about Daniel's and Mary's visit to Karolinska University Hospital, there was a touching moment when they met some sick children.
When Daniel and Mary arrived to Danish Embassy, Daniel said to Svensk Damtidning that the morning has been very good.

It was raining in Stockholm, when Victoria and Mary arrived to Illums Bolighus.
- Aha, it is you who have ordered this weather, Victoria said to designer Ilse Jacobsen, who showed off the thin raincoats from her brand with the same name.
When the royal duo came to rubber boots, Victoria revealed that she had size 37 before they continued to joke about the bad weather outside.

Crown Prince Frederik, prince Daniel and Danish Foreign Minister Anders Samuelsen visited the Swedish music company Spotify's headquarters on Tuesday. And for those who passed by, it was impossible not to see that something was going on - the security effort was far beyond the premises of Birger Jarlsgatan.
During the visit, Spotify's founder Martin Lorentzon, held a tour for the royals.
The Danish Foreign Minister tells that: "This has been very inspiring. There is no doubt that this kind of commercial entrepreneurs is what we will live on in the future".

When Victoria and Mary visited Illums Bolighus, Victoria had the pleasure of showing Mary some of the bowls that Carl Philip hs designed. It wasn't planned, Victoria told that she did not know that her little brother sells his and colleague Oscar Kylberg's blue vase, called Stockholm, there.
- No I did not know that. But it's typical Carl Philip, he doesn't tell anything, said Victoria laughing.
She also revealed that just that variant is her favorite and that she often gives it as a gift.

"It's almost like knowing him, because he's so often in the magazines. But I think he's doing his role very well and he seems very nice", said Anne Wessel after having a brief chat with Prince Daniel at the visit to Aleris Båthöjden Plaza in Nacka. Crown Princess Mary of Denmark was also with when Aleris CEO Alexander Wennergren Helm borrowed Anne's camera to take a photo of the meeting with the Prince.

A deligthful little video from the Danish Royal Family's Facebook of Mary and Daniel's visits today:
https://www.facebook.com/detdanskeko...0721474599772/
The way Mary interacts with people... the clip where she takes the older man's hand and careness it while listening to him is a beautiful moment.
And I also like at last in the video where Mary and Daniel obviously enjoy themselves
