Thanks for pointing that out, it was rather late when I posted this, hence the mix up . I have changed the title of the thread.

Are you referring to the wording "pay a visit"? It simply means "visit" or "do a visit", nothing to do with pay = money. That's just the expression.
So I guess the taxpayer will pay the money, as always

Not too sure what to think of Máxima's outfit - it looks like one of her leopard print dresses with a jacket worn over it. Her hat is great though

"Hello this is Capt. Van Oranje and I'll be your pilot for this flight. We are offering a small selection of "orange" themed snacks and beverages for a reduced rate. I highly recommend the cheddar cheese and cheddar crackers with orange soda or juice."

Funny JessRulz. I think Maxima looks good, but she's looked better. I too like the hat. Hope she wears more vibrant colors though.

I do not like what she is wearing, some sort of jacket with a bow/knot tied in front and I always have considered animalprints rather tacky/common even on a princess.

Not entirely hideous but it is rather ugly. The top I could do with a different color but the skirt is just a total blur. And yes I thought the same thing, was I seeing Laurentien!? I hope to see better outfits throughout the rest of the visit though.

I loved Maxima's outfit, it looks very elegent and appropriate for the state visit. I love the hat. Maxima tends to always have a lovely smile on her face. What a great suprise to see W-A from the airplane window in the pilots place.
