Greetings,
small world indeed....the Dutch monarcy is also interwoven with our own, as William III of Orange-Nassau was also king of England, married to Mary daughter of King James II.
and William V the last 'Stadtholder' of the Netherlands, was married to the daughter of George III of England.
That is just a small part...!
I wonder if my favourite bar is celebrating this...they seem to celebrate a lot of festivals....as they have a varied clientele of locals and tourists to the area...!!!
