Appeltjes van Oranje; May 23rd, 2008

On May 23 HRH Princess Maxima will hand out the annual 'Apples of Orange' awards on behalf of the Orange foundation at Noordeinde Palace. Last year HRH was represented by HRH The Prince of Orange as she was on maternity leave, but this year she will hand the awards out herself. HM the Queen designed the awards herself btw.

Post all the information, pictures and questions about the event in this thread.

A nice foundation IMO, giving attention (and money) to all these small project. Blauw Bloed had a short interview with a woman from the Antilles who won a prize, she was very happy with her 'apple' as it was designed (and made?) by HM The Queen.

Funny that Maxima started her speech with thanking her mother-in-law for being allowed to use the ballroom of Palace Noordeinde.

Princess Maxima looked nice btw, she might have used some of her time in Argentina to buy some new clothes as she hasn' t been wearing many new stuff from Brussels lately (fortunately).
