Orange
30 April 2010 - It is that special day of the year: Koninginnedag. For the non-Dutch speakers: it is the day my home-country celebrates the birthday of Dutch Queen Beatrix. I believe most people know that the Queen shares her birthday with me (in January), but 30 April is the day that the country turns orange and gets a little bit crazier than usual. Sadly its only 13 degrees in the motherland, and I read online that some children had to see the doctor because the wet cold got hold of them. The police advised people to bundle up. I remember a similar day when I was eight or nine years old. I really really really wanted to see the parade, but was sick for a week afterwards. Time to buy stock in BAYER?
