The Dutch Royal Family all seem to be in a great mood, despite the not so great weather! Wonderful to see Margriet and Aimee together, they really look like they get on well. Máxima's hat is definitely something special, and she's really great with the people, having great fun communicating with those who turned up.

Thanks for the pictures! It is a shame it's raining but everyone seems to still be having a good time. I love the color of Aimee's outfit. I'm not to fond of Laurentien's though.

yes, i don't know about it too, Squidgy.
It looks like a patch work.. i don't know about Marilene too, why does she keep wearing that balloon skirt..
the elegant ones today is certainly Annette & Aimee.

100% agreed. I do like Laurentien's outfit too, although her style is perhaps an acquired taste.

But yes, as you say Marilene's skirt is not the best ... I keep thinking her slip is showing.

Thanks so much to everyone for the great photos! As always, I really like what Aimee has on -- very festive yet very practical for the cold rainy weather. Princess Margriet is also very trendy in her skirt! Love the funny photo of Maxima jumping! Makes me doubt any of the pregnancy rumors, though. It looks like they are very appreciated and that they in turn put on a strong family showing on Queensday! Thanks again for all the pictures.

seems like ANP is posting images from royal images (the ones with watermarks) over on their site, so i'd like to post those pictures again, this time with better size & without watermarks.
so, here they are :
