The Kings with their children visit the Belgian coast. On the beach they attend a demonstration of a rescue exercise. Afterwards, they meet 20 rescuers and job student rescuers who are responsible for safety on our coast during the summer. The visit takes place in Westende.

Lovely pictures with the chidren to take part

It's good and important that they attended an exercise demonstration like this.

Tragically only hours earlier a sail yacht has capsized off the Ostend coast, two people are dead, one is still missing, so the originally planned demonstration for the royal family had to be cancelled and be replaced with a smaller one at the beach.

We've been in for a treat this weekend as we've had two appearances in two days from Philippe and his family. :)
It's great to see them all again today. They looked like they had a fun and interesting trip.

You could tell they had much fun. The boys are usually very poised and serious but today they were all smiles (especially Gabriel).

Sad to hear about the accident, but it is important that the royals support this kind of activities.

Yes, and it's good that Philippe and Mathilde are getting the children involved in such activities too.
 
:previous: Thank you for sharing the photos, eya. It looks as if they are enjoying themselves. Were the other children there too?
 
:previous: Thanks eya, that's what I presumed - otherwise it would seem strange that the other children weren't there on a summer holiday abroad.
 
Philippe with those bright yellow pants!:eek:

Long legged-CP Elisabeth is a typical teen, oblivious to everything except her mobile. She is so pretty now!?

Do you even know Philippe? :D
He has magenta, pastel green, yellow... pants :lol:
Take the man out of his suits and he goes all color happy ?
 
I imagine the whole family is there but it's just not in the particular photos the other children!

Maybe we will get some more photos over the next few days of all the family.

Yes, I suppose you are right. I just can't get used to it...in high school a boy I had a wild crush on once wore purple pants to school and it sort of emotionally scarred me.:eek: It cured me of my crush on him for sure!

But I like Philippe quite a lot, always have. I think he is a very attractive guy, loud pants color or not....:whistling:?

I think we are both in Mathilde's black list due to our proclivity towards the King of the Belgians :whistling::D
 
:eek::eek:Whoa, am I seeing this right, yellow pants with a hot pink shirt on the king.........is this real. He does not seem like bright yellow and hot pink are his colors...........:ohmy:????, he let his hair down, way down..:lol:

I only saw the yellow pants secondary to the pink shirt! My opinion of King Phillippe has completely changed!
 
The 2 boys with the same austrian jacket, not natural , not modern and not nice at all.

Ach... it is Austria, it is Salzburg, it is summer holiday... I thought it was a nice tribute to the country.

I like the classic upbringing of the children. I believe Princess Elisabeth studies violin, the children get a cultural bagage which will help them in their development and formation. The royal family looks lovely.

What a delightful event for the family to go to for that really is a good learning experience for the children. I like the jackets on the boys, sure more traditional then what boys their age would wear yet this is an event that they are honoring the country and showing their support for the festival. The king and queen seems like such a delightful couple to be around.

Thinking this is something I would so enjoy and should make note of it so that in the future a trip there would be wonderful.
