mls Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Frederik and Mary visited the Heartland Festival at Egeskov Castle today. The Count Couple Michael Ahlefeldt and Caroline Ahlefeldt owns the castle. They also holidayed with F & M in Australia last year. Article with a few pictures. http://www.fyens.dk/faaborg-midtfyn/Royalt-besoeg-Kronprinseparret-ankommer-til-Heartland/artikel/3015311 Thanks for the news From an article in H&N, the photo they use is old and not much additional info, One very small photo "The Crown Prince Couple, who was invited to the Funen by Count Ahlefeldt-Laurvig-Bille, enjoyed not only the food and music, which among other things, was provided by Anne Linnet, but also each other. They held each other and looked almost like any other couple who had made their way out on a warm summer evening to enjoy each other company without children." Well, at least Isabella was there. I think the Ahlefeldts have a couple of young daughters, so she might have been with them. And Michael Ahlefeldt Laurvig is Vincent's godfather. Perhaps the whole family stayed the night.

You are right The Baltic Sea Challenge primarily takes place in Finland. One wonders how the Daily Mail could make such a basic mistake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the whole thing originally came from newmyroyals, but there is not much info there and they don't give any source for what they have. I couldn't fit it anywhere, but instead searched around for "KDY!(Royal Danish yacht club) and "Skovshoved"! and stumbled on wesselvettcup.dk and KDY's facebook page where they have some pictures of the race. Newmyroyals is probably Daily Mail's only source and DM then just decided from a google list what "Baltic Sea Challenge" supposed to be:-) Anyway, the boats are beautyfull, here is a short video from the race. https://www.instagram.com/p/BJVjU9lgo08/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mls Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Mary's father John Donaldson and sister Jane are (still) in Denmark. We already know, that brother John was in Denmark two weeks ago, when he attended a concert (post above this) with Frederik. John's 75th birthday was on the 5th of this month and it was celebrated in Denmark by some of the Donaldson clan. Yesterday, Queen Margrethe opened a new exhibition at Amalienborg museum and John and Jane attended with her. http://www.billedbladet.dk/kongelige/danmark/video-dronning-margrethe-aabnede-sine-egne-pulterrum http://www.billedbladet.dk/sites/billedbladet.dk/files/styles/landscape_16-9_12grid/public/externals/254626555039034f4456925b1ccde4b2.jpg?itok=yFtuLQOI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
