Mary looks wonderful! I really like what she's worn so far, especially the red coat and dress which was very elegant yet modern. I'm really excited about this trip! Can't wait to see more pictures

 Thanks for digging up the local news w/video! I live in this part of the country as well. I really wish I could've gone and seen them.

All fashion comments have been moved to Princess Mary's Daytime Fashion part 5: January 3- thread. Please let's focus on the purposes of visit instead of fashion.
Thanks, 
Mandy

Idaho is certainly a sportsman's paradise.
Nebraska has grain farming - it is the breadbasket of the USA. There is a lot of wealth and farm industry in Nebraska. Plus a huge state university.

Thanks Pamk, for the information about Idaho and Nebraska. I am not that familiar with the characteristic of the different states in The US, so enlightenment is alwayes welcomed . Anyway if only I had the time I would visit them all. I do envy CP Frederik and CP Mary for having the opportunity to visit so many different states in your magnificent country even though Idaho and Nebraska are not on the visiting-list this time.

Here's an article from one of the local news channels in Denver:
Danish Royalty To Attend Colorado Groundbreaking - cbs4denver.com
There is also a video on the right hand side (its less than a minute long)
Here's another one from 9News in Denver
http://www.9news.com/news/article.as...2546&catid=339
Also on the right side (about 2 mins long- but it also includes news not related to their visit)
Frederik also talks in this video

To me the hardest part of this life is too be far from their children for so long!!! It must be really hard for Mary leaving their children, at home, so far, alone with nannys  !!!

Mary's father has also been in Denmark as a guest lecturer recently. It is likely that he and his wife are on hand to be with the children, just as they have for many of the other times Frederik and Mary both had to be away. So Christian and Isabella's experience is not so different from that of other children sharing a little holiday with grandparents.

My niece is a Nanny to well known children. She reckons that they have a great time while mum and dad are away on business trips. They go to the movies, they play at the park, ice skating, roller skating, horse riding, fun parks etc and, she has taken them on overseas kid's trips. I would like to know how that can be so terrible. While mum and dad are away, the kids will play  sounds good to me

Thanks for the links and pics of their time in Colorado. I live in this beautiful state and wish I could have seen them while they were here. Did they leave last night? A major snowstorm has hit with up to two feet of snow expected. Hope they got out!

Emmily, I too live in Colorado and I'm hoping they we're well on their way out of Colorado. It's nice if you can be sitting by a fire watching it snow but not to travel!

Yes, I agree! If they did not get out last night I think they will be here for awhile. It's nasty out.
I will admit that I am a dork, but it was exciting to me to see pictures of them with Governor Ritter.

I can tell you that Fred and Mary could have come incognito to Des Moines... very few people knew they were here until it ran in the newspaper next day. And I'm just finding out 2 days later.
