Queen's Day in Amsterdam part 1

The 30th of April is Queen's day in the Netherlands. A national holiday with lots of street parties, drunk people and chaos. Queen's day celebrates the birthday of the mother of the current queen. And honors the royal family.
The best place to be is Amsterdam. Most people agree on that so the city is completely overcrowded but a lot of fun. 
Orange is the color that represents the royal family and has become the national color even though the colors of the flag are red-white-blue. So it is the color to wear on Queen's day.
Here are the first impressions of a great day.

Beautiful car design

I've always been fascinated with the beautiful lines of classic cars. At the Milan-San Remo classic car race there where plenty. Even if you are not into cars you would have to appreciate the design of some of these old timers. These images where from the start in Milan.
