On the 20th of March the former Queen of the Netherlands, Juliana of Oranje-Nassau died from pneumonia combined with a general deterioration in her health. The picture is taken in front of the castle where she lived and people paid her respect by visiting and bringing flowers. She had a warm hart and was loved by many people and often called the "Mother of The Country" because she had much respect for people. More information about her at http://www.koninklijkhuis.nl/juliana/www/index.php?Lang=EN In the Netherlands people celebrate her birthday at Queensday, when all cities are transformed with festivals and free markets.
