I have a business contact who sent out the following email in regards to the new ship and Queen Beatrix: As the sun was shining on ms Eurodam in Rotterdam the dedication day festivities got under way to a standing room only crowd. The program began with a performance by the Manhattan Transfer singing group. The arrival of Her Majesty Queen Beatrix was a highlight for all and there was a blessing from the reverend of the Rotterdam Seamen’s Church. President and CEO Stein Kruse welcomed Her Majesty and several special guests, followed by moving comments from Eurodam Captain Jeroen van Donselaar and Corrado Antonini, Chairman of Fincantieri. The Eurodam bell was blessed by the Mariner Ambassadors. Her Majesty Queen Beatrix was then escorted on stage for the official naming and bottle break. Inspiring musical performances by the world famous Opera Babes and the local Rotterdam Orchestra set the tone for the long anticipated event and it was truly an affair to remember. I don't know how to download the photos, but QB looked wonderful, the sun was shining - the Queen greeted all of the crew - even the chefs!

Thanks for your friends report, pamk.. it got me wondering which 'opera babes' were there though
 .--- Good to see HM in Arolsen, she never misses any event related to her family there. The hat is even more curious than usual though . Nice to have a good picture of the Fürstin of Waldeck-Pyrmont!

Some links with pictures or German newspaper articles:
Hessen begrüßen Königin der Niederlande Stadtportal Bad Arolsen | Besuch der Königin Beatrix Korbach/Waldeck: Die politische Königin - HNA Online Lots of pictures: Stadtportal Bad Arolsen | Königin Beatrix zu Besuch in Bad Arolsen Königin Beatrix zu Besuch in Hessen HNA.de - Zeit im Bild - Königin Beatrix besucht Bad Arolsen And a video, with a short interview with the Fürstin of Waldeck-Pyrmont: Videos: Bad Arolsen: Besuch von Königin Beatrix - HNA Online Courtesy ATR, various posters. ---- I suppose this picture is screaming for a good caption .

HM received,ao,the Credentials of the new US ambassador to The Netherlands,Mr.Jim B. Culbertson,at Noordeinde Palace today.
He will probably stay untill january after which there's the change of government in the US. His main task,as he sees it,is to prepare the celebrations on occasion of 400 Years relations between the US and The Netherlands in 2009. Hudson,employed by the dutch VOC first arrived in what was called Nieuw-Amsterdam At the time after the Boston tea party and it's outcome,The Netherlands were the first to recognize the new Nation.It was mainly from the dutch antillean island of St.Eustatius or Statia,that the new nation fighting the brits were provided with arms & funds&food,and it was upon the arrival of a US warship at St,Eustatius a salute was fired from the fortress,thus acknowledging the new nation. Mr.Culbertson believes not to many in both the US and here know about these long ties/relations.
