Kingsday 2016
Each year, on April 27th, The Netherlands goes orange. It's Koningsdag (or King's Day, formerly Koninginnedag or Queen's Day on the 30th) and we celebrate that guy's birthday. Some go to parties and festivals - especially the night before, King's Night - whilst others sell their stuff on the streets. You see, the whole country becomes one huge flea market. For many years I've sold my old toys, clothing and books in the Vondelpark, so of course I couldn't let a year pass, even though the weather wasn't looking good. At all. I asked friends and family for their unused stuff so they could sponsor me one way or another - thank you guys!
