 On August 25 Frederik and Mary wrapped up warm was they visited Tjoernuvik where they were greeted by enthusiastic locals waving flags.

A day earlier, the Royal couple rugged up in hats and warm coats as they explored the village of Mikladalur near Klaksvig.

There, the family saw a statue of the Seal Woman, a mythological character known to all on the Faroe Islands.

It’s hardly surprising the Tasmanian-born Royal wrapped up for the occasion.
