Christening Coverage Begins
The Danish television stations TV2 and DR.dk have already begun coverage of Lilleprinsesse's christening. While the christening doesn't start for another hour and a half; they are talking with journalists, running royal shows (The Princess and The Pea was my fav) and children's programs while we wait for the guests to begin arriving at Fredensborg Palace Church.
A discovery has been made with the online TV2 broadcast, it is only for those who pay for the service, so if you do not pay for TV2, you cannot view the christening at the TV2 site. But this link to DR.dk will open you a new window (Windows Media Player or your selected video viewer) that has the current DR.dk coverage live from Denmark (I have been watching for the past two and a half hours!)

Lilleprinsesse Christening Update
Lilleprinsesse will be christened on July 1st, two Saturdays from now, at the Fredensborg Palace Church. The christening is expected to be smaller than that of her older brother Christian's, which was held in Copenhagen.
Two guests have already been confirmed for the event (apart from the Danish Royal Family of course!), TRH the Crown Prince and Princess of Norway. Haakon and Mette-Marit are good friends of Frederik and Mary's, and both are godparents to Prince Christian.
Added: royalcourt.se has also confirmed that HRH Crown Princess Victoria will be attending the christening. Victoria is another of Christian's godparents.
