Today is the official day from Queen's Beatrix 25th reigning jubilee. But yesterday was the start with a concert on the Damsquare in Amsterdam. And 25 years ago she became Queen also in Amsterdam. She wants to celibrate Queensday in The Hague and Scheveningen today.

In the morning (from 10 o'clock) was it more official with the Parliament in " De Ridderzaal " in The Hague. Afterwards there were schoolkids and they song for Queen Beatrix.

Then they leaving for a private lunch with the royal family. At 2 o'clock they arrived in Scheveningen. In the streets in Scheveningen were so many activities to do and they celebrated it with the Dutch people. Maxima was very popular..as usual.

Here is one picture from the activities. Prince Pieter van Vollenhoven and Prince Maurits "koekhappen""
