Royal sisters lay wreath on their father's tomb.
Since
not everyday a crowned head celebrates his ruby anniversary, Denmark
has laid a series of festivities and events in line with the queen's
40th
year anniversary. On the morning of Jan. 14, the queen, together with
her younger sisters, Princess Benedikte and Queen Anne-Marie of the
former kingdom of Greece, paid a visit to their parents' tombs at
Roskilde Castle. She was with her consort, Prince Henrik, her sons
Princes Frederik and Joachim, and daughter-in-law Crown Princess
Mary. Princess Marie bailed out from the event because of her
pregnancy. Meanwhile, the queen's sisters, Queen Anne-Marie and
Princess Benedikte were each accompanied by their husbands, King
Constantine II and the Prince of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg.
Each
sister laid a wreath on their father's father tomb. The queen laid
blue wreath, Queen Anne-Marie, yellow, and Princess Benedikte pink. A
synchronized curtsey followed, led by the crown prince of Denmark,
Prince Gustav (Princess Benedikte's son, and Crown Prince Pavlos of
Greece.
