Am I the only one that thinks the glass cigar-shaped "monument" with symbols of her reign scattered on top is a bit jarring in that setting? It feels as if someone will have to carefully dust the thing everyday. Unfinished. Not solid. I don't know -- as if it will be detached and shot into outer space when the time comes. Love the elephants and the foundation, though.

: Most of the people I talked to, thought that
: the Reigning Couple would be burried - or
: placed - inside the sarcophagus, and the
: discussion about Prince Henrik's decision
: not to be burried in Roskilde was about
: "his side" being empty. But the
: Queen will actually be burried - or placed
: in a coffin - in the crypt below the chapel.
: So the sarcophagus not a sarcophagus but a
: "grave monument" - a sulpture -
: and a symbol of Margrethe's reign.
