Sometimes I wonder what’s the thing with (royal) twins nowadays. So many celebrities become the parents of twins, and there are more royal twins than ever before. Almost every time a royal is pregnant, there are rumours it will be twins. Most of the time that is of course rubbish, but once in a while […]
Planning a trip to Leeuwarden, the Dutch city that will be one of the European Capitals of Culture in 2018? The event will be opened in presence of King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima of the Netherlands on Saturday evening 27 January 2018. There will be lots of activities this year, not only in Leeuwarden, but […]
It is impossible to attend each royal wedding there is, but this would have been a really nice one for me, if it hadn’t been a nine-hour train ride to Amorbach, which is situated near the city of Aschaffenburg, Germany. It is not really the time of the year anymore to combine such a trip […]
Like so many people I use the social media. I’ve got my Twitter feed open almost all day, as that is the place to be to follow people and get the royal news faster than anywhere else. Facebook is more for the personal contacts. I have a private account and an open one for my […]
He already held Nassau Walks and Maria Louise Walks through the centre of the city of Leeuwarden, the capital of the Province of Friesland, in the north of the Netherlands. On 5 August Bearn Bilker – a known Dutch royalty-expert – led the very first Anna van Hannover Walk, about his favourite Frisian Nassau. It […]
Crown Prince Pavlos and Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece with their eldest children.
Placing photos on Flickr always costs ages, almost as much I sometimes think as resizing and cutting pictures. It keeps on making new accounts and forgetting my password. Most irritating. But anyway I’ve uploaded some of mine (and Stigs) photos of the wedding of Hereditary Prince Ernst August of Hannover and Ekaterina Malysheva on 6-8 […]
The town of Braunschweig (Brunswick) is only about 45 minutes by train from Hannover. The newly rebuilt palace sounded interesting, so a friend and I decided to go there for a day trip. Also this city was heavily bombed in World War II. I can’s say my first impression of the city when leaving the […]
The photos are copyrighted and are not allowed to be posted or copied elsewhere without permission. I have permission to use the HAZ pictures, but for use with the wedding reports only. Despite of being in Hannover I probably saw less of Hereditary Prince Ernst August von Hannover and his bride Ekaterina Malysheva than I […]

The photos are copyrighted and it is not allowed to pass them on or copy them without permission. Whether bride and groom liked it or not, before the wedding of Hereditary Prince Ernst August of Hannover and Ekaterina Malysheva on 8 July 2017 the local newspapers had written it all. There was hardly a detail […]
Somehow I am never able to travel without coming back home with books. My bookshelves are completely full and I wouldn’t know where to put new ones anymore. But then you’re hanging around somewhere and they just have the greatest books that you absolutely must read. That happened of course when I was in and […]
