Queen Margrethe has been joined by her two sisters at Gråsten Palace in Denmark for a summer holiday.
Her Majesty welcomed Queen Anne-Marie of Greece towards the end of last week with Princess Benedikte arriving a few days before that.
The gathering was publicised when a cycling team passed by Gråsten Palace on Saturday and was received by Queen Margrethe, much to the surprise of the cyclists. Also present at the reception was Queen Anne-Marie and Princess Benedikte. The cycling team is part of DIF’s Soldier project, Ride4Rehab, which aims to give a group of injured veterans the experience of cycling through Denmark. In the Royal Kitchen Garden, Princess Benedikte offered the cyclists something to drink. After this, the visit to Gråsten Palace was over, and the riders continued towards Sønderborg, where the day’s stage ended.
