More of their arrival today.
Mathilde was in red all day, well it is her favorite color after all She was very elegant, I saw her on the news, walking on that carpet, and she's got an unbelievable natural grace!Mrs. Kwasniewski is very elegant too...Maybe it's a Polish thing? :) |

Thanks for all the great pictures Hannelore and Catherine.
Mathilde looks great at the welcome banquet. I love that garnet colour on her -- though hard to think of a colour that wouldn't look lovely on Mathilde! Were Laurent and Claire present? I noticed Astrid and Lorentz in one of the pictures. |
