That's very close to the place where my parents live (in the very south of the Netherlands ). Could be interesting, though I don't think I'll have the time to go and see if I could catch a glimpse of Filip & Mathilde...:(... sigh. I would love to see them in real life!

More photos of Mathilde at the ballet gala. (P.P.E.)
She was accompanied by Jeanne Brabants, a Flemish dance innovator who's in her eighties now. She said Mathilde has a very good way of holding her body, like someone who has had ballet lessons.
There was also a modern piece on the song "Mathilde" of Jacques Brel.
After the performance, Mathilde greeted the choreographer. She said she'd enjoyed it very much, it was original and surprising. The choreographer was of course very glad, he told her he was proud and touched. She also talked to the dancers. One of them explained how long he and some others had been dancing already. In his cas it was 10 years, which really surprised Mathilde, she said "But you're still so young!"

I wanted to post these pictures from Belga too Cathérine, but I ran out of storage space on my computer, and at the same time I was writing with a friend on Messenger. So thank you very much for posting the pictures.:) Also thank you Larzen for the pictures you posted.:) I like the first one of Philippe in the ones from FacetoFace, and overall he looks really great in these pictures - so content and happy.:)

MATHILDE IN STEP AT DANCE GALA
Belgium's Princess Mathilde was looking typically elegant when she arrived for a ballet performance in Antwerp wearing a floor-length black velvet coat. The popular royal would have had her work cut out to steal attention away from her eye-catching hosts, however, as they were sporting an array of vibrant stage costumes.
The 33-year-old, who stepped out for the Star Dance gala, came face-to-face with some colourful characters when she met performers after the final curtain went down. One of the male dancers was sporting an Oriental-style turquoise tunic with drop earrings as he stepped forward to greet the VIP guest, while another of his peers managed to turn heads by simply dispensing with wearing anything over his upper body.
Crown Prince Philippe's wife was no doubt pleased of the chance to enjoy a night out, as she has her hands full these days with five-month-old Prince Emmanuel. And with two more young children, Elisabeth and Gabriel, both waiting for her at home, family matters are never far from the princess' mind.
