75-year-old Queen Beatrix
handed over power in a constitutionally ordained ceremony in the Mozes Hall of
the royal palace in Amsterdam to her eldest son Willem-Alexander. The transfer
became official as she signed the "instrument of abdication" this
means she will now be known as Princess Beatrix.
Queen Beatrix told the
crowd. "I'm happy and grateful to present you your new King
Willem-Alexander,"
46 year old
Willem-Alexander will be the first King of the Netherlands since 1890.
Wow! I can only think of England wow again!
