While in Alluitsup Paa, Prince Christian, Crown Princess Mary and Crown Prince Frederik visited a church and a kindergarten, before stopping by the village’s sports centre, where they enjoyed “Kaffemik”. The word “kaffemik” is a mix of Greenlandic and Danish and is best translated as “coffee time”.
