[Bhutan] Quote from a very young King Jigme Khesar as he was crowned


"Destiny has put me here. I will protect you as a parent, care for you as a brother and serve you as a son,"  promised King Jigme Khesar as he was crowned. "I shall give you everything and keep nothing. This is how I shall serve you as king."


I kinda love him already!

Double birthday in Liechtenstein: first, Prince Benedikt (born in 2008)




I just spent a few hours looking but just could not find a picture of little Prince Benedikt, son of Prince Constantin, son of Prince Hans-Adam II of Liechtenstein, who turned 3 on May 18th. 

So, to compensate my frustration, I am putting up a few photos of Prince Constantin when he got married to his wife, Marie von Kálnoky von Köröspatak, now styled Princess Marie of Liechtenstein. They married civilly in Vaduz on 14 May 1999 (oh, another wedding anniversary on that date!) and religiously in Cicov, Slovakia, on 18 July 1999.

Hope that next year, I will have a photo of the little guy.
