Surprised about the part of attempting the reception at the Folketing and the wreath laying on the 14th given those two events would still draw a crowd of spectators.
Another BB article about the postponement and events still scheduled for the 14th. Guess the State Council could be held virtually. Not sure about the government reception unless it is quite scaled down. The wreath laying at least is outdoors.

 Not too surprised about that. Both in 2020 and 2021, the traditional birthday celebrations at Amalienborg were cancelled and people were strongly advised not to show up. Yet both years QMII ended up acknowledging the people who actively ignored that advise and showed up outside Fredensborg by showing up in the door to wave to them.

Unfortunately no surprise.
It comes as the government impose new restrictions.
So I guess the court got a heads up, in regards to what was likely to be agreed on and imposed,
Late summer is however slightly surprising for me. I would have put my money on April.

Late summer would be what...July or August? Would that not be when summer cruises are usually?

I'd say August. And that would coincide with the second leg of the summer cruises.
Perhaps Mary will be celebrated by embarking on the first leg?
Because as things are, with now on average 10.000 infected a day (and that's just those who are tested, so 15.000 may be closer to the actual number), I think we will be in a state of semi-lockdown for most of January.
So it will be too risky to plan any big celebrations in connection with Mary's B-day in early February.

Yeah...the biggest thing for Mary was the gala. The Mary Foundation reception can be held later and be for her birthday and the foundation's 15th anniversary.
Not sure anything would be held in June for either 50th as there is QEII jubilee which might still go forward was planned by June.

This series has been quite a success!
That is often the case when you allow an interesting and intelligent person to just tell her story.
And to that QMII is a great storyteller.
So this has captured the interest of even people who are not that interested in the DRF, judging from a conversation I had on Second Christmas Day.
Haven't seen anything yet myself, but there are still three segments or so left.

Normally a monarch always looks to the right, but with the coat of arms of the Danish Realm (not just Denmark) between the two portraits, it's of course natural and appropriate that QMII in both portraits look at the coat of arms rather than away from it - which would indeed be a little odd.

She's also looking at herself. Appropriate for 50 years.

Something to look forward to and also expected with QMII's jubilee and Mary's B-day.
Alas, these celebrations are postponed, instead we can feats our eyes on this.

The magazine issue of Billed Bladet that will hit the streets tomorrow will have an interview with QMII in connection with her jubilee.

Guess I'll buy the magazine tomorrow.

The Palace shared two photos of the interview:
** kongehuset gallery **
„My father was very keen that I should once follow him. He was infinitely proud of that thought.“
About becoming Queen the day her father died:
„That appertains, and at that moment the task is much larger than the immediate grief over losing one‘s father.“
Also today the Royal Calendar has been updated with the next upcoming jubilee event:
On January 14 Queen Margrethe, Crown Prince Frederik, Crown Princess Mary, Prince Joachim, Princess Marie and Princess Benedikte will attend the official celebration at the Folketing, afterwards they will attend a wreath-laying ceremony at Roskilde Cathedral together with Queen Anne-Marie:
