18 Jan. 2004
New years reception for the representants of NATO and SHAPE and their husbands and wives (yes, January is an ongoing new years reception for the RF

). Mathilde wore this Armani coat that I was so jealous off...I found something similar at Zara, but I just looked like I had thrown on an old rug :(

. Aahhhh...If I was a princess, I know where I'd be shopping, and it woudn't be Zara!

Pics from Isopix, with Jelka's kind help.

29 March 2004

Princess Mathilde visits the IBIS sailor school in Bredene. This school is a special one, where children coming from a "difficult family situation and negative life experiences" (as the official words are) are trained to become sailors and fishermen. The school was founded in 1906 by king Albert I (Filip's greatgrandfather).

She got acquainted with all aspects of the school and had lunch with the boys! I think she stole a few hearts that day

When was the "incognito" photo taken? I understand not many of these are taken in Belgium but I sure do love to see them!

I *think* 2002. This particular pic was taken by someone just walking in the street and noticing them, it was sold to magazines later. Yes, pics like these are very rare in Belgium. I love seeing them too - I admit it :) - but on the other hand I think it's great Belgian press/people still have the decency to leave them alone.

I remember pics from just after their wedding, they were on a romantic weekend in Paris and the French press had gotten wind of it. It were pics of a relaxed couple strolling through the streets with their arms around eachother, and a few with Mathilde turning around and giving the photographer a very filthy look :)

A visit Philippe & Mathilde made to Genk in the Flemish province Limburg. I think it was in 2003.

The people in the hospital were donating blood .

Perhaps:

Mathilde: "You have a little foam here".

Philippe: "Oh. Thanks. Glad I'm wasn't facing the camera with that on my face".

Well, perhaps something completely different was said.

Btw thank you to everyone who've posted pictures in this thread.:) They're absolutely wonderful, and a great joy to look at.:)
