Perhaps...

National Day 2015 - Monaco
Thank you to those who shared the photos and videos of the National Day. Gabriella and Jacques are extremely cute and it's lovely that Albert and Charlene brought them along to the celebrations.
I also think the more serious mood this year was due to the Paris attacks. I think it's a thoughtful and respectful thing to do.

Don't worry, you must not be offended, it is not a big mistake, I also do mistakes like this because I am not good in geography and I do some mistakes to place a name of a town, I understand you, I have also a bad time ( chimio traitment); I also come here to forget
Monaco is also involved in the attacks in Paris, there are french résidents and also french workers who come to work in Monaco.

National Day 2015 - Monaco
I have had a good look around the net and can find no report or reference to the evening gala for this year's celebrations. If it had been cancelled as a mark of respect to events in France I would have thought there would have been announcement of some kind - perhaps from the official press office, but there's nothing I can find. Could it be this is a new departure , or it was always intended to hold the gala at a later date this year. Perhaps it depends if on whether there is opera or ballet currently being performed in Monaco. Iceflower, do you know anything?
Just had another look by using soirée as part of my search and found the opera was scheduled to be Eugene Onegin

No, the gala was not cancelled because we saw a brief report about the gala on Monaco info, we saw that there was the french anthem before the monegash anthem at the open of the gala. and Charlène put her hand on her heart during the anthem. and it was the 'tosca' which was plaued
the gala took place but no photographs were allowed to take photos in tribute of the attacs of Paris.

I didn't find any pics either, but the gala was held that same night, as I saw a clip of the evening on Monaco Info.

Thank you for this. Yes I was about to correct my post to note it was Tosca. I don't quite see the logic of no photos if there were cameras there ( obviously not to take photos during the anthem). Hopefully one will surface some time. Can your recall if any of Caroline's family attended?

Babies are beautiful. But outfits are ugly and sad. They remind me Oliver Twist scenes from the orphanage asylum.

The coat of the babies are not ugly, their coats are beautiful and fit for the babies , the color is grey
and this photo is very sweet, the babies were the stars at this national fest.
AnAnother photo of P Gabriella between her mother and her auntie P Caoline, nice photo

I have only seen the cover photo above, showing P Gabriella's attempt to walk by herself. What about P Jacques? Any proof that he is already walking?
The babies are beautiful and truly the future of Monaco. I hope to see them often as they grow up and especially taking on some part in the National Day festivities in the years to come.

That cover was so sweet and the toddlers so beautiful! It is adorable that Gabriella was clearly the center of the attention in that pic!
