Willem-Alexander and Maxima photo-flag

Yesterday I saw the first flag wappering in Amsterdam, a photo taken on the occasion of the engagement of crown-prince Willem Alexander with the Argentinian beauty Maxima Zorreguieta. In the canton is the Dutch flag.

Her design will become a real flag, which will be presented to Willem-Alexander and Máxima. Sanne and her whole class win an excursion to the Dokkumer Vlaggen Centrale, accompanied by a battery of TV-cameras, which can be seen 16.55 p.m on the Dutch Z@ppelin (Nederland 3), and later on
