Not here in DK. And certainly not since the Schleswigan Wars in the mid 1800's. Bad connotations. - The DRF are supposed to be above all that with family lineage and whatever the other noble families were up to.

That huge column in in the middle of the patio, so when you walk in is all you see and provides certain shade. Around the patio are the differnt halls for different prehispanic cultures, the biggest hall is the aztec one. I'm sorry I'm not really savy on prehispanic history...somehow it never atracted me much
Across the street from the museum is Chapultepec park and inside it the Castle where Maximilian Habsburg and Charlotte of Beligium lived. From Antropology museum to the Castle is a 5 minute walk and a little drive to the top of the hill or a hike if you are more adventurous.

Thanks. I recall the Regent Couple also visited this museum. Judging from QMII's look I think she would gladly have spend an entire week in there.

The column of hammered bronze was created by José and Tomás Chávez Morado. It represents the mythological tree important to pre-Hispanic Indians and depicts in relief aspects of Mexico's history. The column is in the entrance to the museum.

Thanks, Gerry. I'll put this museum on my list should I ever visit Mexico City.

Imagine an alternative world where M&F are visiting the Aztec empire.

Remarkable how much the first lady resembles Mary. They have exactly the same style, but the first lady pushes the profesional look even further (the smile, the hair...)

A nice 20 pic (so far) gallery from BT: Se billederne: Mary i mexicansk fremstød | www.bt.dk
ADDED: BB has posted a video giving a summary of the first day:
I see it's Marianne Singer who has been sent to Mexico. She is still relatively new, so it will be interesting to get to know her style.

 I read somewhere that M+F and the Danish delegation are staying at St. Regi's Hotel.
Just saw that President Enrique Pena Nieto has made the picture of him meeting M+F to his cover picture on Facebook

Thanks Roskilde, it's fun to see more than just the press pictures, and take a look at the suite where they are probably staying. I like to dream of luxury haha

http://noticias.univision.com/mexico...visitan-mexico
"After the delicious lunch Mexican company president and his wife, Frederik and Mary visited the Papalote Children's Museum and took the opportunity to greet a group of Mexican children studying in Denmark School. Although communication was difficult because of the language difference, the charisma of the Princes was imposed, protocol was placed aside, and both Frederick and Mary were able to connect with kids."

Thanks for the many pics, not least to Polyesco. 
I've noticed two things so far.
That Frederik was very conscious about not touching, or perish the though pulling down, any items at the museum and therefore very thoughtful buried his hands deep in his pockets. - Sorry, simply couldn't help it. That was one for the right leg. 
And that he wore a "charmeklud" (= charmer-rag or charming-rag) around his neck to the concert. Are they coming into fashion again? Every well-dressed gentleman wore them in the early 70's.

Like I said "well-dressed gentleman". 
I just don't recall having seen Frederik wear one before, so I was wondering whether they are becoming fashionable again. - You know, we hillbillies out here in the countryside don't follow what's going on in the big city.

Isn't it just a normal scarf, where he has the long end underneath the shirt?

Frederik and Mary were in the morning, noon, afternoon and early evening news. I didn't saw the longer evening broadcasts, but the time zone doesn't fit very well with Denmark's time. They (the evening news channels) can precisely not manage to get the new day in Mexico into their evening news, so they must wait until the next day and then it's not so new anymore. So is it better when they visit Australia, for example, there are ahead in time

Noo, it does look like a charmeklud = charmer-rag. Royally Speaking: Photo
It is the proper way for a gentleman to dress casually. And as Nordic points out, Joachim - being a perfect gentleman - is of course frequently seen wearing such an accessory.
Mary de Dinamarca, estampa de elegancia, sencillez y buen gusto en su visita por México
The youthful looking woman walking behind Mary in this photo is the Minister for Health Astrid Kragh. - She (and two other female politicians) has the not undeserved distinction of being compared to Daisy Duck's three nieces, Kylle, Pylle and Rylle (as they are known in Danish). http://www.andeby.dk/upload/modules/...4126444682.gif
