Just want to say Happy Coronation Day to all our Dutch friends, both on this forum and elsewhere! Have a great day! :wave

Indeed. I watched Beatrix and Willem sign the book and all the cheers as they signed. Also all of the streets full of oranje. Sure is going to be one big party.
I remember being in Lucca in 2010 for the MK concert and The Netherlands were playing in the world cup final, I think the night before. The local authorities had erected a giant screen in the streets and there were hundreds of Dutch fans partying so we all joined them. I was supporting The netherlands anyway because van Bronkhorst used to play for Rangers (my team) and he was in the final. Think he was captain and it was his final game before he retired. :(
Anyway, you guys sure know how to party! 8)

I also just watched them sign the book and then I realised that it is not a coronation, but an investiture, so apologies for my mistake! In any case Prince Willem is now King Willem Alexander! :)

Thanks for all your wishes. Already out from early this morning, now at home to change clothes, tonight a ball to celebrate :D
It's a big party in every city, village and corner of the country. Back tomorrow :wave
