A bit late, but... happy independence day!

The Dutch national holiday is on 30 April, it's called Koninginnedag (Queen's Day). There are a number of traditions associated with it - people, mostly children, sell stuff on the street, everybody wears orange, etc.

You forgot one tradition: if you can still pronounce Koninginnedag, you need another Heineken!

I couldn't get anywhere near the river, only got as far as Tenth Avenue, or about 300 to 400 meters away, but, it wasn't too bad....
