Queen Beatrix
Yesterday we had a dinner from the Duke Economics department, with a traditional 'pig-out': North Carolinian style barbecue (pork) with hushpuppies, coleslaw and other 'fixings'.
Later in the evening we had a fun birthday party. Our Argentinian friends told me that the newspapers in Argentina were full of speculation that Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands may announce her abdication next week. The official state press agency is denying it -- so it may be true.
Ettie is celebrating her birthday today -- happy early birthday!

die geruchten gaan hier dus ook. Maar niet op TV en radio en niet in de kranten.
