Congress Planner

I've added an Interesting Link called Congress Planner which should help you get to the programme. Let me know of the sessions you are interested in me attending and I'll try to get there!

Humerous Canadian- Dutch Connection

If you have not tuned into CBC's Insecurity I would recommend viewing Episode 11 Going Dutch. Find the link to the episode on CBC in the Interesting Links. Just for fun.

The Royal Wedding

Well, I should be reading on Amsterdam but I'm finding myself planning to read "Royal Weddings for Dummies" this week so I can be ready for the 3am call on Friday to watch the British festivities.



Of course, I should be reading on Dutch Royalty. The following is from the Royal Website - "The Netherlands is a constitutional monarchy: the position of the monarch is laid down in the Constitution. The monarch is the Dutch head of state, and together with the ministers, makes up the government. Queen Beatrix has been the head of state for the kingdom of the Netherlands since 1980."

Queen Beatrix has three sons with Prince Willem-Alexander - the Prince of Orange being the heir to the throne.

If you are interested in the Royal Family. Go to my links to find a link to their website.
