Happy Koninginnedag to all the Dutchies out there! These are some photos from Queen’s Day last year around Delft. Unfortunately with the P4 deadline looming I won’t get a chance to go to Amsterdam like I wanted.. but oh well. Plenty chance to celebrate once the presentation is finished..hopefully. Fijne Koninginnedag!
you are here. 
beautiful 😀
koninginnedag? what is that exactly? 🙂
cute dog in the 2nd picture 🙂
It’s a Dutch national holiday. Technically a celebration of the previous Queen’s birthday.. but they just make it kind of a ceremonial celebration now for the new queen. Basically a lot of street markets, concerts and lots and lots of people wearing orange.
Thank you for your detailed reply. It must be nice. I am sure it provides a lot of opportunities for photos too! 🙂
No problem! I just checked out your blog.. I love your photos of Toronto! Are you a fellow Canadian then? I guess Queen’s day here is like the equivalent of Canada day 🙂
Yes I am a fellow Canadian ^^
Yup I am in Toronto, and I think you are right about Canada Day ^^
And thanks for the compliment 🙂
And I forgot to do my koninginnedag shopping…
