The balcony scene | NETHERLANDS WILLEM-ALEXANDER & MAXIMA |
On 02-02-2002 the heir to the throne Prince Willem-Alexander married Maxima Zorreguieta from Argentina. The wedding took place in Amsterdam. I've declined the invitation to attend because it was my birthday on that same day and I threw a big orange-themed party! (hehehe). More about the Royal Family at http://www.koninklijkhuis.nl/UK/welcome.html |
My birthday! Best to click on the pictures to get a better view! Top left: hubby, me, dog Joep Top right: my birthday balloons all along the main street in Brielle Bottom left: orange buffet Bottom right: flags and balloons in my street |
And more Top left: cheese platter on top of a disgustingly ugly placemat with the happy royal couple (a present from one of my friends). Note the cheese in the national colours. Top right: my son after the party (02.00 at night) Bottom left: birthday cake disappointingly did not mention my name (hehe), but it did serve 50+ people and was delicious! Bottom right: cake, coffee and oranjebitter (a liqueur always served at national festivities). |

flyingscot4 Sun Feb 8, 2009 05:17 UTC Hi AT, That looks like a car I had in the early 60's. It was the worst piece of junk I ever had, and I didn't have it long. Except for those seats; they just kind of enveloped you. Nice pages. | pieter_jan_v Thu Nov 20, 2008 18:04 UTC Hoeze www.de-engel.net bij jouw Bazar restaurant tip? PJ | ranger49 Tue Oct 7, 2008 19:06 UTC Such a long time since I was in Amsterdam - the city walk with a local sounds an ideal way to get to know the city all over again. | unaS Mon Aug 4, 2008 17:33 UTC Well I can certainly see that having visited for 5 days I still missed a great deal. I must return!!! |
