At Elsa's


At Elsa's, originally uploaded by rob-gizzy.

Queen's Day 2009
What a strange Queen's Day this turned out to be. Some crazy guy drove his Suzuki Swift into the crowd in Apeldoorn with the intention of attacking the bus with the Royal family, in total 7 dead. The tone was "will Queen's Day ever be the same?" . We shouldn't change tradition because of one crazy guy. At Elsa's we were told Job Cohen wanted the festivities in Amsterdam to continue, but asked everyone for 1 minute of silence for the victims. Very appropriate.
On a different note, the party at Elsa's was as usual, with "The Second Hand Band", excellent.
