On Friday, the Danish royal family marked an important milestone: the Golden Jubilee of Queen Margrethe II. The Queen has been on the throne since January 14, 1972. While glittering celebrations are planned for later in the year, the royal family participated in several events to mark the anniversary yesterday.
