I haven't seen it anywhere on the internet yet but have seen it myself but don't have a copy. I expect it to show up somewhere. Other pictures of this day can be found.

There's nothing festive in the photo from the Kings Christmas message,hopefully there will at least a tree or garland in the video.

Lovely photo from the family's Christmas card! I like that it was taken in Seville since that's where the couple met IIRC. I love Alexia's facial expression

That was indeed where they met and was the reason they went to Sevilla with their daughters as this year marked 20 years since they met at the Sevilla Fair.

Applause from King Willem-Alexander, Queen Máxima and the Princesses Amalia, Alexia and Ariane to all care workers, to support them in their fight against the corona virus and their commitment to the health of everyone in the Netherlands

Apparently the entire country was applauding yesterday at 8 o'clock in the evening to salute the care workers. Nice that they posted this video.
The family is in self isolation until March 21st as in Lech there were several cases of Corona patients. that means that several planned working visits will not go ahead.

So awesome to see the Dutch Royal Family and the Dutch people show appreciation to their healthcare workers during this very challenging time.

Such a simple gesture that carries a powerful message and boosts morale during this difficult time.

I wonder why the RH posts on Twitter, that disgusting sewer of the lowest of the low. On FB or Instagram at least the comments can be moderated.

The Dutch Church in London is still optimistic about postponing Kings Day but having a party in the summertime instead:
“ The organising parties, The Dutch Church, The Dutch Centre, Koning Willem Fonds and Vereniging Neerlandia have decided to postpone this year's King's Day event, but aim to paint the town orange this summer. Not just as a delayed celebration of King Willem-Alexander's birthday, but also to acknowledge and toast to us all coming together again.

Love it! What a nice gesture. As an OB RN I can attest to the fact that it is rough going into work. The goodwill gestures are appreciated!

Do be extra careful. You are like a front line trooper in this war against the virus.

A lovely heartwarming gesture from WA and his family. I'm sure it was greatly appreciated by the residents of the care home! Stay safe, too, Alisa.
