Wow! I didn't know that they were interested in buying property in Argentina. It sounds lovely. I wonder if they purchased it as a place for holidays, or if they purchased it for one of Maxima's relatives? I would love to see photos.

As for the property in Argentina, it was bought as an investment, not a vacationhome (for the royals).

I watched the videos. Thank you for the videos, Carlota, Prinsesbeagle, and Pirrar. Princess Maxima and Prince W-A seems to have a funny side. I thought it was funny and cute when Maxmia came out of the underground and hugged W-A.
