mls Posted July 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2022 https://www.bt.dk/tour-de-france/tour-feltet-har-kronprinsen-med-paa-hjul "In addition to Crown Prince Frederik following the Tour de France in Denmark, a specific ship will also follow the riders. This is the Royal Yacht Dannebrog, which usually transports the royal family around the world, and which this time will sail Crown Prince Frederik around. "We can confirm that the Crown Prince will sail from Nyborg to Sønderborg on Saturday, where the Crown Prince will host a reception on Sunday," communications adviser Frederik Linde at the Royal House says."

Izzieq Posted July 1, 2022 Report Share Posted July 1, 2022 Oh what a nice surprise! I had figured we would see maybe 1 or 2 of the kids, but didn't think we would see the whole family come out! I think I heard some Australian cheers in the crowd!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be, that they will all leave Copenhagen on the royal yacht tomorrow. Perhaps for Gråsten. Not sure, but I think it looks like Josephine's godmother Josephine Rechner (with family ?) and Christian's godfather Hamish Campbell with family.

Oh my eyes didn't deceive me...I had thought I saw Hamish Campbell in the back there! How nice that friends from Australia could come visit! And the kids look around the same age range as the CP kids so that should be fun. Isn't the royal yacht going to follow the race tomorrow? I could have sworn I saw that somewhere. I was thinking they were going to go abroad for summer holiday, but with their Australian friends/family visiting maybe they will stay more local. Those photos of Frederik....wow, he was living his best sports life today! After all the hard work to get the tour to Denmark it finally happened!

Yes, it will. Dannebrog will be in Sønderborg (which is about 15min from Gråsten) on Sunday and the Crown Prince is hosting a reception there.

mls Posted July 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2022 https://www.billedbladet.dk/video/7HIWI8Mj/xY3VjeWI "Among the friends was one whom she knows all the way back from her youth in Tasmania - Hamish Campbell. They got to know each other at the University of Tasmania, where he studied economics and she law, and it did not take long before the acquaintance developed into friendship. Hamish Campbell, who works as a stockbroker for an investment firm in Sydney, has previously been described by friends as an intelligent, sharp, and a straightforward guy. The fact that he is also an outdoor person like Mary and Frederik does not make it any worse. Hamish Campbell also sponsored Prince Christian in 2006" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
