\ufeffIt’s been a busy year for the royal yacht, having sailed to the Faroe Islands in June<\/a> before embarking on the final summer cruise<\/a> through the municipalities of Frederikshavn, Thisted, L\u00e6s\u00f8 and Sams\u00f8.<\/p>\n

When the King and Queen visited the Faroe Islands, which are part of the Kingdom of Denmark, they were joined by their youngest daughter Princess Josephine.<\/p>\n

Their most recent summer cruise to Denmark’s northern regions \ufefftook place in late August and saw the King and Queen warmly welcomed to each town with huge crowds and much fanfare.<\/p>\n

For the farewell party overnight, Queen Mary was dressed \ufeffin a white broderie lace dress by Temperley London that she has had in her wardrobe since 2017 and a cropped Prada jacket from 2013, in keeping with her tendency to dress in a mixture of old and new<\/a> pieces.<\/p>\n

The nautical theme extended to navy accessories including heels and a clutch and white pearls by Dulong.<\/p>\n

The Royal Yacht Dannebrog serves as the official and private residence for King Frederik and Queen Mary<\/a> when they are on summer cruises in home waters or on official visits overseas.\ufeff<\/p>\n

The ship \ufeffis usually docked at Holmen, on Copenhagen’s harbour, meaning royal fans can see the vessel when it is not in use<\/a> by the royal family. The location is a short walk from the palaces of Amalienborg where the King and Queen live<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the ship’s 93-year history, it has visited most of the ports in Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands, as well as ports in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and on the east coast of the United States.<\/p>\n
