Last year I posted about my Queen's Day in Amsterdam with lots and lots of pics in an orange overdose. This year it will becelebrate on the Saturday but probably will be posting fewer photos - if any at all. I will go to the Vondelpark with another family and our kids will be selling some of their toys, books and other stuff. Yes, the Vondelpark is completely reserved for the kids selling their stuff and playing tricks !

Of course there is much more to see and do than I have listed here above. But hopefully this post can give you some ideas. Below, some videos to give you an idea of Queens Day, if this all seems new to you. I have to laugh when on the Dutch press it is said that "Queen's Day is the largest street party in the world with one million tourists coming to Amsterdam" (Hahahahahahaha! Hellooooo ! Have you ever heard about Carnival in Brazil ? One million tourists ? Oh, really ? Actually that's peanuts ! In an Eurocentric view of the world probably one million vistors is a lot though. Only Salvador, in Bahia, receives for the Carnival 2 million people everyday during one week). Well, enjoy the vids and have a nice weekend !
