I don't know where to put this, but today, March 9, would have been the 50th anniversary of Princess Beatrix's marriage to Claus von Amsberg in Amsterdam. Here is a lovely tribute from het Parool, the Amsterdam newspaper.
Donderdag vijftig jaar geleden trouwden Beatrix en Claus - Amsterdam - PAROOL
the article is in Dutch, but Google translate will be helpful.
 
It was sad that Claus died before all but one of his grandchildren were born. Eloise was born four months before his death but he was so sick by then, I don't know if he would have seen/known her.

Claus in 2002, both parents in 2004, Friso in 2013, she has suffered a lot of loss in the last decade and a half. Luckily her remaining two sons, eight grandchildren and her sisters with their kids are there to keep her going.

Great that the Princess wore her insigne of the Orden del Toisón de Oro. She has thought about that detail.

I like it that the Dutch never forget to welcome a royal lady with a nice bouquet of flowers. And that they line the royal loge with floral arrangements. It is lovely.
