Geocache Description:


Kongens Port / The King's Gate


Her bor Danmarks Konge og Dronning

Frederik André Henrik Christian, Hans Majestæt Kongen, greve af Monpezat, Frankrig, blev Danmarks Konge den 14. januar 2024. Ved samme lejlighed blev hans hustru, Mary Elisabeth, Danmarks nye Dronning. Hun kommer oprindeligt fra Tasmanien i Australien. 

Dronning Mary tituleres Hendes Majestæt Dronningen, mens Kong Frederiks mor tituleres Hendes Majestæt Dronning Margrethe. Hun bor i palæet overfor (se GC7B7HQ - At the Queen’s door step).

Frederik er et traditionelt dansk kongenavn, og Kong Frederik er den 10. danske konge med det navn. Derfor kaldes han i daglig tale for Frederik den 10. eller Kong Frederik X.

Kong Frederik X og Dronning Mary bruger som regel denne indgang til deres palæ, og hvis du venter længe nok, kan du være heldig at se en af dem - eller begge - forlade palæet, når hunden skal luftes (se foto).

LOGNINGSKRAV

Vedhæft et billede af dig selv og et X (for Frederik X) ved cachens koordinater med kongens dør i baggrunden. X’et skal med for at vise, at du har taget billedet for at logge cachen og ikke bare har taget alm. turistbilleder på slotspladsen. Tjek at det er døren på koordinaterne og ikke en anden dør.

Hvis ikke du vil have dit ansigt med på billedet, er du velkommen til at sløre det. BILLEDER, DER KUN VISER ET NAVNESKILT ELLER FINGRE ER IKKE LÆNGERE GYLDIGE.


Eksempler / Examples

    

The King's Gate


Here live the King and Queen of Denmark

Frederik André Henrik Christian, His Majesty the King, Count of Monpezat, France, became the King of Denmark on January 14, 2024. On the same occasion, his wife, Mary Elisabeth, became Denmark’s new Queen. She is originally from Tasmania, Australia.

Queen Mary is titled Her Majesty the Queen, while King Frederik’s mother - the former Queen of Denmark - is titled Her Majesty Queen Margrethe. She resides in the palace across the square (see GC7B7HQ - At the Queen’s doorstep).

Frederik is a traditional Danish royal name, and King Frederik is the 10th Danish king with that name. Therefore, he is commonly referred to as Frederik the 10th or King Frederik X.

King Frederik X and Queen Mary usually use this entrance to their palace, and if you wait long enough, you might be lucky enough to see one of them – or both – leaving the palace when the dog needs to be walked (see photo).

LOGGING REQUIREMENTS

Attach a picture of yourself with an X (for Frederik X) at the cache coordinates with the king’s door in the background. The X is necessary to show that you took the picture to log the cache and not just a regular tourist photo. Make certain that you are at the correct door!

You are welcome to blur your face if you don't want it to show in the picture. PICTURES ONLY SHOWING FINGERS AND/OR A NAMEBADGE ARE NO LONGER VALID.
