Friday king's day

May 4th: memorial of world war victims

May 5th: liberation day here in holland, with liberation concert

More importantly it's my mothers birthday :)

:love:


aw you also have a party then like us dutch

and she shares her birthday with our King

She'll need some 'Dutch courage' to blow the candles out :laugh:

Have a great kingsday :)

i will xx


May 4th is also really lovely, 2 minutes of silence to remember and pay our respects to all fallen soldiers during world war II who helped liberate our country and fight against the germans


also poems from children each year (they have a poem contest at schools here, and the best poem is chosen for that boy/girl to read it out loud to everyone)

Isn’t the 4th of May also Star Wars day?

Happy Kingsday for Friday

Has Van Der Sar been crowned as King at last?:amazed:

He really deserves it after his contribution for club and country.

Happy Birthday to your Mother.:dance:

live update, a dance performance from some teens from a school in Groningen


it's lovely weather for our royalties right now, Sunny and dry about 14 to 15 degrees



it is crowded, many people want autographs from our King and Queen

some teens are teaching the Princesses how to race with the drones

quite funny and lovely to see :love:



also a banner which says with Talent and Innovation, Renovation is our future


lots of games being played there, volleyball, football



everyone wishing our king a happy birthday as well :flutter:

only a shame the boring commentator Astrid Kersseboom with her monotone voice has to ruin the fun (at least for me)

:joker: :joker:


now we switch to a sorority called Vindicat, infamous high school sorority here in holland, but also the place where many of our dutch royalties went to school



and we also get to see the Martini Church (a very famous place in Groningen)


''shawn mendes music playing in background There's nothing holding me back''

ooh, a painting battle between 2 children, money raised is for KiKa (a charity against children's cancer)


our king showing genuine interest in all activities/games, very nice to see how he cares about everyone in our country :love:

WOW, the crowd singing happy birthday to our king just wow :clap1: :clap1:

now a club owner Guy Weizman (born in israel, lives in groningen) owns a nightclub called Club Guy & Bar

he had a speech for the royalties ''my friends welcome in my town and our town groningen''


MartiniChurch now, an orchestra is playing several songs there


a dance performance to that orchestral music :clap2:

the royal family is loving that dance orchestra performance

okay a guy in the church tower playing a song now with the church bells, a sort of groninger song

a poem just now from a 7 yr old girl


now a dutch song performed by some local groninger musicians, it doesn't sound bad tbh



on a side note my idol Maan has got 6 shows today herself, she wished our king a happy birthday on insta just now
