Aww, what a lovely sight to wake up to this morning...
For such a long private trip was criticized the norwegian CP-couple for many years... I am curious what will be the reaction now in Sweden...
It's interesting the heir to the Swedish throne can take a few months off to spend with her children and it appears to be just fine.
I know when members of other royal houses try and prioritise family, it becomes a federal case.
Since most people her take parental leave - both mothers and fathers - I don't think people are concerned with things that the crown prince couple do with their time off. They are just doing what a lot of other parents do.
I remember when Victoria married people speculated about how they would manage family obligations. Then when Victoria fell pregnant there was quite some spirited discussion about how both she and Daniel could or would manage as the Crown Princess couple. If I recall correctly, it was our Swedish members who informed us that parental leave was the norm for both mother and father and eventually that was formally announced. End of discussion.It's interesting the heir to the Swedish throne can take a few months off to spend with her children and it appears to be just fine.

How they managed that time was up to them and they seem to have done very well just like the rest of their countrymen and women. Being royal means you are an example to the country and the world and it was hardly surprising that parental leave would be a prime example of the Swedish way.
I had totally missed the event. Was it mentioned in the calendar?
Nope, I have missed that as well. I have to say that I get more and more confused about what and how they communicate official engagements. Especially trips abroad are just added to the calendar without mentioning the purpose or the program. Very annoying.
