Germany visit

"Look, there she is, how charming she looks!" The people in the streets of Wiesbaden repeatedly called "Máxima, Máxima" and rejoiced when the Dutch Queen (42) came to them, shook hands, took flowers.

Máxima and Willem-Alexander (46) made their inaugural visit to Germany as a royal couple. From north to south, everyone agrees: Dear Máxima, you are so wonderful!

The couple arrived in the official government aircraft - King Willem flew himself - with a delegation of about twelve, from the minister to Máxima's barber.

After the meeting with Germany's top government in Berlin there were cheese snacks in Stuttgart - because you feel right at home!

What do the three daughters say?

While Willem-Alexander speaks excellent German - his father Prince Claus came from Hitzacker, Máxima has a whispering interpreter.

And what do the three daughters say when the parents are gone? Willem: "You are used to it. And this journey is comparatively short, just over one night. They say, 'Oh, you're back tomorrow!' "

But the girls should not get used to souvenirs. "We do not find that a good education."
