Lech Photosession; 10 February 2008

[Rebafan81]

Alexia seems to be really bothered by all the fuss, good thing that Amalia has the personality to handle all the phot-ops she will be exposed to as she gets older. Hopefully we can get some pictures this year without Alexia crying. She seems like a very emotional child, IMHO. I hope Ariane feels better, poor little thing seems to be sick a lot. The "A" team are beautiful girls.
Thanks for the great pictures!!

Amalia really seems to enjoy the skiing. Maybe her sisters will learn to like it more as they get older. These girls are so cute!

Lovely pictures! The children are just adorable.
I know this will sound like I'm a hundred...but they are getting so big and (beautifully) growing so fast...

The children are so sweet! Ariane is really the cutest right now. Alexia and Amalia are pretty girls.
Constantijn's kids are sweet too. Especially the youngest- Leonore!

I agree, Maxima looked radiant in that purple ski outfit. Even her hair looks perfect. And Willem Alexander finally decided to change the colour of his jacket (always that blue one...)

I like Queen Beatrix in red.

Ariane's two teeth that are coming up are cute to see :). Apart from that I bel;ieve that Ariane is wearing a suit that was worn by Alexia before and Alexia is wearing one of Amalia. Add to that that I think Maxima's suit is recycled too and we Dutch have one more reason to look at our royal family and nod with approval (we can appreciate frugalness).

I believe little Ariane had been ill the day before or something like that, hence the crying.

Nice to see the family together, I wonder if Friso and family are there too and just don't attend the photosession or that they stayed in London.

What are they saying in the interview portion??

What is the temp there? If its around 0c or a few degrees lower, the weather wouldn't be bad to have the kids ears uncovered.

It would if they were in our -20c weather tho. -12c felt like a heat wave.

Did I understand correctly that the guy talking in the first video from RTL said that the youngest daughter of the princes is called Alexia? My dutch isn't very well so I'm not sure, but that's what I thought I understood. That would have been an awful mistake
I think Alexia is more a Latina girl who likes the sun and the beach, because she sure looked much happier during the Argentina photoshoot a couple of weeks ago. Seems like she thinks the snow is way too cold Amalia is such a sweet big sister!

[ashelen]

thank, great clips!

[antonieta]

Thank you all for these photo's and clips.

In the tv clip , isnt that a bit dangerous what the prince did, having his daughter on his shoulder when he had his ski's on , what if he had fallen over ?
but it was nice to see the family .

[Gertrude86]

The prince is talking in the interview about Amalia. He said that Amalia had her first ski lessons last year and that she really likes it. She was angry because she had to stay downthere for the photosession. She wanted to go to the piste. The prince also said that he convinced maxima finally that she could really go to ski outside the pistes. She never skied before she married Willem-Alexander.
Princess Ariane was a little bit ill. She didn't sleep well her mother said. So thats why she was crying. Alexia also cried because it was cold.

In the rtl news they indeed make a misstake. He is talking about Ariane, but calls her Alexia.
