Very dramatic. And he seems to be getting bigger by the day.

Was disapointed in the US telecast of the opening. If I had not visited this forum before it came on would never have known there were ANY royals at the opening ceremony.

Keep passing along the great posts and pics.
Thanks!

I saw the Prince and Princess of Piedmont, Marina in brown furs I believe. Willem-Alexander and Maxima were also there, apparenly Maxima danced on the YMCA (I missed that part).

The show was very nice, and it is always a joy to see Sophia Loren of course :)
Great show I thought,magnifico!The dutch commentators were very extensive in their knowledge about the who is who and background info.Now,if we could just find the pic of Máxima dancing........

I realize that this is really a current event, but as the thread is in the Royal Chit Chat forum, please don't post the pictures as attachments. Please use other hosting services for your images.

King Harald looked pretty pleased with a silver and a bronze medal at the men's biathlon today. I was a bit amused at his friendly wave to someone, who seemed to congratulate him after the bronze winner went across the finish line.

It does look serious. Has Prince Albert finally found his girl?

Maxima dancing to "YMCA"???????!!!!!!!!!! Now that would have been a great Olympic moment to see! I watched the whole thing on NBC and not a single royal was shown. But Carla Bruni's Armani gown was super.
