Queens Day!

Beatrix a little less orange
Queen Beatrix from Orange!
I have spoken to some people out of the Netherlands, but they all did not seem to know that the Netherlands actually have a Royal Family, a queen, a crown prince, married to a princess and they also have children (which are not yet direct inheritors of the throne. But thats not important today! Because today was Queens Day! Millions of people were out on the street celebrating the birthdate of the Queen on April the 30th.
Now Queen Beatrix van Oranje-Nassau used to be married to Prince Claus, but he passed away. Our Crown Prince is Prince Willem-Alexander van Oranje-Nassau
The ''Golden Carriage'', not made of real gold, because then it would be too heavy! (every dutch person learns this in school)
They had the money to buy one made of gold, but then the axis would not be able to handle the weight of the pure gold carriage.

Well this is NOT a holiday for chocolate, but just a very fun day to be in the Netherlands, and to taste a little ''orange'' culture!
Why orange you ask? Have you ever seen Dutch people in sports? Or at anything nationalistic for Holland?
If you said yes, you know they are all ORANGE! If you said no, Ive got some pictures for you!



World Cup 2010 (the Bavaria Babes who were arrested for sneak-marketing of a diffrent beer-brand (Bavaria) then the official sponsor (Heineken)
Queensday crowd (they are orange if you did not notice)


The Orange Legion (the people) never lets the Lion (Holland) stand alone!

Miss Holland!

The picture explains itself
 Now you might wonder: Why the F*CK are all of these INSANE people (Guys wearing fake boobs, drunk people and people that make A LOT of mess) wearing ORANGE? why ORANGE?

Well the answer to ALL of Hollands nationalistic events are covered in orange is because of...

Our Royal Family!

Their last name is ''van Oranje-Nassau'' (translates to ''from Orange-Nassau''). The Royal Family is so very dutch, that dutch people don't even notice it anymore, that there aren't a lot of europe countries with a royal family (France is very proud they killed every last one). On the other hand, you might notice that the United Kingdom's Royal Family recently had a wedding...
So I hope to educate the people of blogger, the people roaming the internets, that Holland DOES have a Royal Family, and their last name!

So maybe if you ever wanted to go to Holland, plan your trip for next year April 30st, and taste the REAL Dutch culture (and not that windmill stuff)
The next time you see a crowd of crazy orange people, you can almost certainly say: They are from Holland!


Very Dutch: Orange + Tulips!

Ages for chocolate

Now usually a lot of people tend to think that something is only for certain ages,














Like watching Disney Movies is only for kids, riding in a shopping mall cart is only for very small kids, using the MCdonalds ballparks, doing anything that is meant for kids is not meant for grown-ups



but NOTHING can be less true, I dare you to watch the Lion King again, and youll cry! Riding in a shopping mall cart will get you on Jackass, using the MCdonalds ballparks will make kids think you are so cool!









But what about chocolate?

Well as the pictures may already show you,
Well chocolate is for ALL ages (except baby's), all genders, all humans, as you may say, because feeding chocolate to dogs is NOT a good idea. cats don't like chocolate either! (they will eat it, they will DIE).

So I hope when you get old you won't be thinking
 ''ill save this chocolate for my grandkids'',
 but instead you will think
''Yummi this chocolate taste so great, I hope my grandkids won't be on time to eat it''





Have a great day!
