My Queensday Finds (omg)
« on: April 30, 2013, 06:30:50 AM »
Some of you might have heard of the epic fleamarket day on our Queensday... which will be Kingsday next year. It's the ultimate ponyhunt :P

A bit more about the holiday here:
Spoiler
Queen's Day is the celebration of the Birthday of our (now former) queen (it was special today because we got a new King). It's a holiday over here. Because the Queen's own birthday was in January it was moved to her mother's birthday date because the weather is better then.  So everyone (well almost everyone) dresses in orange (because of the surname of the royal family Oranje (orange) and there are festivities, such as music, games and fleamarkets. Every town and village participates :) The fleamarkets are on the streets in the centre. So it's a day full of orange madness, and today was a great day for many Dutchies!

I didn't found much this year. One fleamarket only had G3's which I left there... but the other...

I was already glad to find a box with G1

Yep, but I've seen no G2 at all this year, only these G1's and lots of fakies and G3. Good thing Marktplaats exists :) I think I just used all my pony luck for the coming 3 years or so :P

Thank you so much for the explanation of Queensday!  I see so many awesome brags about it each year so it's nice to have a bit of understanding of how it came about.  That is a wonderful line up of ponies you got. The greek ponies are to die for :D
