    Thank you Roskilde (and Mulher).:flowers: I "googled" it and it does look like a beautiful area. I'll put it on my list of places to go should I ever be lucky enough to visit Denmark!

    Crown Prince Couple's Prize 2005-2012, 2014-2023

    Thanks so much for these fabulous screenshots, Roskilde!:flowers: I love the ones taken from the video shown at the show, of M&F walking. Was it mentioned where the video was shot? It doesn't look anywhere familiar to me. I've been watching a lot of Danish TV shows lately (several are being...

    Crown Princess Mary's Working Visit to New York City: September 27-29, 2015

    And an article and a few more pictures from Billed Bladet, including one of Mary attending a casual evening party. I don't know where she finds the energy after such a busy day. Very admirable! Kronprinsesse Mary bagte kanelsnurrer med Claus Meyer | Billed Bladet

    Rmay286, thanks so much for sharing your wonderful pictures with us! :flowers:I'm so glad you got to see them up close and personal. That's cool that you got to shake W-A's hand. (Have you washed your hand yet? LOL!)

    Dutch State Visit to Canada and Official Visit to the USA: May 27-29 & June 1-3, 2015

    You're welcome, HereditaryPrincess. I was happy to share!:smile: I thought the couple looked pretty chic today. And it was nice to see that quite a few people came out to see them. Here are a few more articles on today's and yesterday's engagements. The Tulpi chairs look fun! Dutch royals...

    Oh, sorry RMay286! I wasn't trying to lead you astray! Good thing you checked with the Embassy. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get to see them up close!:smile:

    Dutch State Visit to Canada and Official Visit to the USA: May 27-29 & June 1-3, 2015

    I don't know which is the best place to see them. But I think the "funnest" place to see them would be Toronto Island. I love going there - a wonderful place to be on a hot summer's day. And it will be a Friday engagement, so hopefully the Island won't be as crowded as it would be if it were the...

    Dutch State Visit to Canada and Official Visit to the USA: May 27-29 & June 1-3, 2015

    Marlene, it's frustrating for us Royal Watchers to try to get specific information (i.e. exact times) about this visit! I ended up contacting the Dutch Embassy and asking them. They amazingly replied within minutes with the information. Not sure why they can't post it on their website though. I...

    Dutch State Visit to Canada and Official Visit to the USA: May 27-29 & June 1-3, 2015

    Thanks EmmaNL for the explanation. That makes sense. Since flight first began, Newfoundland has often been used as a stopover for those flying from Europe to N. America. I managed to sneak out of work for a short while to see the W-A and M at the National War Memorial. I arrived there about...

    Dutch State Visit to Canada and Official Visit to the USA: May 27-29 & June 1-3, 2015

    I didn't realize that they are beginning their visit in Newfoundland. Great news, as Newfoundlanders don't often get to see non-British royals! Supposedly they will be spending the night there and then flying on to Ottawa in the morning. Should give them a good chance to experience some good...

    Oh, thank you, Polyesco, for the pictures of their arrival! I'm started to get excited about the visit. I hope to see them tomorrow when they lay wreaths at our National Memorial, as it's close to my office. I'll just have to find a way to sneak out of the office for a little bit! The local...

    Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary's Visit to Canada: September 17-19, 2014

    A nice summary of some of the highlights of the trip, Polyesco! I thought they did a great job too, from what I saw both in person (I was one of the "fans" at the National War Memorial Service), and through pictures. Seeing them visit NYC time after time, it was a real pleasure to have them...

    Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary's Visit to Canada: September 17-19, 2014

    You're welcome, Marfre! The Daily Mail has another article on the tour commenting about Mary's "racy" snakeskin shoes breaking with royal tradition. Hasn't she been wearing these shoes (or at least a very similar version of them) for years? I guess they are just wanting to do an article on...

    Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary's Visit to Canada: September 17-19, 2014

    Thanks for the correction, Nordic! Yes, lucky them. I'm sure staying at Rideau Hall would have been even nicer than staying at the Chatêau Laurier.

    Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary's Visit to Canada: September 17-19, 2014

    Hi Marfre! Yes, Rideau Hall is the official residence of the Governor General. When our own Royal Family (i.e. Queen Elizabeth and her family) are visiting Ottawa they usually stay at Rideau Hall. It's a beautiful place and the Governor General takes the attitude that it belongs to all...

    Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary's Visit to Canada: September 17-19, 2014

    Frelinghighness, I believe they are staying at the Chateau Laurier, but I am not 100% sure. It is one of our most beautiful hotels and certainly has a history of hosting royalty, presidents, etc. I think the trade delegation that is accompanying the couple is staying there, and Mary had a...
