The Queen looks radiant! She must have enjoyed this concert, combining two of her passions: Europe and classical music. As a patron of the National Youngsters Fund she must have enjoyed seeing young people so dedicated to their art as well!

The Queen does look radiant Marengo. Like you said, the concert was likely very enjoyable for her.

Here are some more pictures from last night from Colourpress ...

It's better to play safe than to be sorry. It was a good idea for the pilot to land because of the adverse weather conditions.

Sept 7 2005 The Queen visited the Bunnik Plant in Bleiswijk today.

It looks like a very interesting project - from what I can gather, carbon dioxide (which would otherwise be omitted into the air) is instead pumped into this greenhouse (& 500 others like it). The benefits are: the plants love it, and there is a bit less pollution in the air.

I hope I have described this OK - I am relying on translation of an article in Dutch on the RF's official site, so I may be way off. I'm also not sure where the Carbon dioxide is coming from (Shell??). If any Dutch posters know something about this project, I would love to hear more.

Yesterday, 27 September, Queen Beatrix paid a 'jubilee visit' to Flevoland, where she had an encounter with rap star Ali B. Here are some pictures from ANP.

**Marengo** · #30 09-28-2005, 05:55 AM

Lovely pictures, especially with rapper Ali B, it was all over the news yesterday. Very nice that the queen was so relaxed and she actually seemed to enjoy her hug with the rapper. After the hug he greeted her the way he greeted princess Maxima before, with the fists etc. Very funny!

Thanks for the picture Miss Helen!:) The Queen looks lovely in lilac!

**Marengo** · #37 10-05-2005, 03:08 AM

She does, but I must say the knight in red is looking very well for her age as well (as she was decorated for her effords in WW2 she must be over 75! I really like this picture, of REAL heros, not the Hollywood version.

GrandDuchess · #38 10-05-2005, 12:30 PM

Today Queen Beatrix opened a Michelangelo exhibition at the Teylers Museum in Haarlem. It's nice to see Beatrix in such a bright and strong colour! These pictures are from Seegerpress.

Maxie · #39 10-05-2005, 12:34 PM

The pink is very lovely indeed, it suits her well.
And a Michelangelo exhibition in Haarlem? Hmmm, I've got in friend in Haarlem, maybe she wants to visit that one with me.

Wooo!Thanks for the new pictures of Her Majesty, GrandDuchess, she looks really stylish and lovely in this pink colour, the outfit is the new one but i think the hat is recycled as she wore it last year at some ceremony like Princess Maxima got a seat in Parliarment but the hat matches with this outift also a great combination, so lovley Queen Beatrix!
