Most times I red about Queen Paola's dog it is said that it is a Jack Russel. Once I red an artikel that stated that she had a dog of some rather unique Russian race that cant bark, like Queen Juliana had. I doubt that, although I am not a dog expert who can say that with absolute certainty by seeing a photo. But I what I can see that it is the kind of vivid animals that always find something interesting to explore in the opposite direction the owner thinks to go. I like that kind of dogs:). And yes I also do like these pictures of the queen at the park and the serres:)

Last week a street shooting took place in Antwerp in which a man shot and killed a black woman and a child.A second woman, of Turkish origin, was critically injured in the shooting and a responding police officer shot and injured the culprit.
The woman who was killed was working as an au-pair. She was taking care of a Belgian child, who was also killed in the shooting. Both died at the scene.
The Antwerp public prosecution office later said the shooting appeared to be racially-motivated. The arrested suspect was described by authorities as an 18-year-old skinhead with extreme-right sympathies.
Today the little girl was burried. The king and queen also sent a wreath which was put next to the coffin.
