Will Willem and Maxima be at the games throughout this week, too?
And a moderator's note: Since it seems that no other members of the Dutch royal family will be attending the games, I will move this thread back to the Prince and Prncess of Orange sub-forum. Sorry for the confusion.

Aww..*melts into big puddle*. Amalia and Alexia are just too cute for words! Thanks to everyone for posting the photos. I like the ones of Amalia looking a bit serious because her expression is like the speed skaters when they wait to see if their times will be good enough. Lol!

What a great thread! I just love to see this family. The pictures of them cheering and clapping are so cute. Even the girls are getting into it. How adorable!

Alexia looks just like W-A! She's totally adorable, and Amalia looks like she'll be a sports fan when she grows up! I hope they make it a practice to bring the girls to the Olympics.

Erben (the skater who gave the flowers to Maxima) is such a great person! It shows in all he does. He was so happy he finally got his olympic medal, though it's a pity that it was only a bronze one. (Can you tell I'm a huge fan of him? :p)
And thanks for the pictures of the Holland Heineken House, purple_platinum. I was just wondering if W-A had been there to party with the Dutch in Torino. The Holland Heineken House always is very popular at the Olympics. Everybody wants to go there, because the Dutch know how to throw a good party.  I've seen huge queues before the HHH at television. It must be great for W-A to be there and to celebrate the medals with the Dutch champions for such a great crowd!

Well, Inge de Bruijn is a Dutch swimmer who won gold at the Olympics in Athens. W-A went to the HHH (as he did now) and on stage he hugged her very enthusiaticly and some German gossip mag published the pictures and made an affair out of it...

Great photos! The couple (and their daughters)is certainly doing a fantastic job by supporting all the Dutch athletes. I love this photo of Amalia pointing something out to her father...How cute!:)

Going through the photos from www.fotoleovogelzang.nl (search 'maxima'), I came across this really nice photo of Maxima kissing Alexia's head :) I thought that it was nice, and I wanted to share it with you, so enjoy!
