We were out to lunch and heard music coming from down the street. Soon enough we saw the Royal Guard marching down the street playing some kind of march. According to Wikipedia:
When the Queen is in residence the The King's Guard (Kongevagt) also march alongside the changing the guard at noon, accompanied by a band that plays traditional military marches. The Guard Lieutenant (Løjtnantsvagt) is always alerted when Prince Henrik or another member of the royal family are reigning in absence of the Queen.Although we'd seen it before, it was still a nice surprise. I suppose we will have to plan better next time (and make sure you aren't in a car behind them else you'll be stuck in traffic for a while).
I'm guessing they play rain or shine (it was pretty wet that day).
