It seems that the Introduction visit has been postponed. The Dutch Court calender states that Willem-Alexander and Maxima will visit Belgium on that date instead. i hope a new date will be revealed soon.

Yes me too

Willem-A and Maxima seem to be built on a different scale to the people they are meeting - I'm not being rude but just how tall are they?

 

[COUNTESS]

They are tall. So what. Europeans by and large are shorter than Americans. It doesn't matter. Who cares.

Not you so dont bother answering

 

[ladongas]

I think that the Dutch are among the-if not the tallest in the world. I know that everytime I am there I feel like a twig among trees! My Dutch friend says, What do you expect? Holland is so small we've got no place to go but up.

I don't know about the King but Queen Maxima is 5'10.

Hello should take a little closer look to what they write:
"Victoria and Daniel, who became parents to Princess Estelle last February, were on a one-day visit to Sweden."

Hello should take a little closer look to what they write:
"Victoria and Daniel, who became parents to Princess Estelle last February, were on a one-day visit to Sweden."

And how they write...
This is also from the article:

"Victoria wore looked chic in a royal blue textured form-fitting dress with statement silver jewellery and blue patent heels."

How about a proof-reading before publishing? Twice, maybe?

 

[COUNTESS]

The Dutch are the tallest in the world.

What world? Hardly in our world. Some are tall, many short, like some of the family there. 5'10" is hardly tall. in my world.
