That's great.

The Greenlanders will certainly appreciate this.
 
:previous:Agree. Plus a great concept of the Arctic countries coming together :flowers:

The host are certainly happy for his support

Mayor Asii Chemnitz Narup (IA), is thrilled that Crown Prince Frederik is the patron of the big event in her municipality:

- It is huge, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has agreed to be patron of the Arctic Winter Games in 2016 in Nuuk. This underlines and reinforces the close ties between Denmark and Greenland and shows Crown Prince's great love and strong attachment to Greenland."

BB writes that Frederik is not expected to take an active part in the games:

He will be a spectator and hand out medals.

- Haven't looked at the calendar. I wonder if Mary and/or some of his children will join him for a couple of days? They will appreciate that in Greenland.
 
:previous:That would be fantastic :flowers:
Im sure Greenland would be very happy to have the CP family back, as they are very excited for Frederik.
The games take place from March 6 to 11, not sure if its a spring holiday for Danish children?

"Anders Lassen Foundation also distributed four scholarships to soldiers accident Battalion of the Regiment, which in 2014 was deployed to Afghanistan. During an offensive in 2014 in Afghanistan, showed the four scholarship recipients resourcefulness and initiative that the Foundation has chosen to appreciate.

Crown Prince Fredertik laid at the ceremony not not hide the fact that he was impressed by the scholarship recipients' bravery. Their efforts during the attack were subsequently praised by an American major general. He explained that efforts had saved a lot of people that day, though the attack killed an American major general life."

Bad weather and storms have delayed many flights in Greenland. The opening ceremony is now postponed to a later time on Sunday.
Frederik has arrived in Greenland but, like hundreds of participants, has been unable to reach the city of Nuuk.

Thanks, Polyesco. :)

So they finally got the snow they needed. - But couldn't the weather gods deliver the snow spread out over a period, rather than all of it at the same time?!?

Guess Pingo :penguin: may have to do without his family a day or two extra.

Thanks Polyesco and Muhler :flowers:

Yes, here Sunday morning, Crown Prince Frederik and several hundreds of athletes are still stranded in Kangerlussuaq due to the bad weather in Nuuk.

In case you should be in doubts (which you certainly not should) Frederik is a BIG SUPERSTAR also in Greenland and they adore him. Just check the country's largest newspaper Sermitsiaq.AG where there is 'Frederik' all over place and they covers his arrivial and visit like it was a huge official visit. I like that.

He spent two nights in Kangerlussuaq. He was supposed to arrive in Nuuk Friday evening and had a private programme for Saturday, but had to stay in Kangerlussuaq.

BB has a few details.

According to this article, Frederik (and presumably Mary as well) touched down in Denmark early Friday morning after having returned from Qatar.
He left for Greenland onboard a Hercules transport later Friday. (Presumably including a pit-stop on Iceland).
Click to expand...

Busy days. Arrive, unpack his work suits and ties and pack his winter jackets.
Glad he and Mary had enjoyed some quiet family time with the kids before the Saudi trip because now he is on another official trip.

With his Monday full of events in Greenland, he should be back with his kids Tuesday.

He was still listed as regent March 4th to the 6th so I guess they can be regent in Greenland too. :flowers:

Yes, Greenland is part of the Danish Kingdom (or is realm the right word? :ermm:). When QMII is on summer cruise in Greenland she is still in charge of Denmark :)

Here welcomed Frederik young players from different teams. And there was great interest to greet the prince in every delegation."

Thank you for your brilliant coverage of Frederik. :flowers:

I don't think there's a big risk of Greenland leaving the realm while Frederik is around.

Here is a delightful picture of Frederik and (an athlete?) at todays's events:
https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/t...g?ig_cache_key=MTIwMDgxMDI2MjExMTU3MDcxNA==.2

Frederik ended his official program today and was taken to Nuuk airport for about 4 hours ago - meaning Frederik may land at home in Denmark in about half an hour. Around midnight Danish time. Perhaps just in time to reach kissing Mary goodnight. The children must be far into dreamland.
