Live coverage starts at 21:00 but Press conference starts at 21:30. So 30 minutes to go.

Yes, I'm glad they could take part. I read somewhere that the government is in favor of Maxima's father attending the christening. Maxima must be so happy.

Though they probably won't read it themselves, my sincerest best wishes go to Prince Willem-Alexander and princess Maxima.

I'm really happy it's a girl, because that means that after Willem as King we will have a Queen again. And because I'm curious if she is going to grow up as pretty as Maxima. It is always nice to see a princess who is beautiful.

What about the Press Conference. Will it begin now in 15 minutes or was it already? I get confused with the times.

It seems like everybody is celebrating in the Netherlands in their own way!

Can't believe this thing. It picks now to fail on me. Anyway, what I was going to say before was that they showed the cannons and the people cheering for the last 30 minutes and they talked to "royal" experts. Now, let's hope I can get the video back.

Phew. He just came out with the baby. Did anybody talk before the doctors? I saw the doctors at about 34 after? Did it just start?
