Koninginnedag

Today it's "koninginnedag" (Queensday). The nation' s celebrating our Queen's birthday. Most of us have a day off, we dress ourselves in orange (the Queen's surname) and festivities are in every town. Markets, musicfestivals etc. etc.

I plucked this pic from the internet to give the Non Dutch and idea how nuts we can get here *lol*

This year it'll be her 30th year on the throne and I think Queen Beatrix is doing a great job.

I won't dress in orange and will probably not join any festivities but I do have the tv on to watch her visit to the province "Zeeland" today and I'm glad to live in our little kingdom!!
