That carriage is the &quot;Gouden Koets&quot; which means Golden Carriage. It is primarily used for the Prinsjesdag ceremony, see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prinsjesdag" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prinsjesdag" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prinsjesdag</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Beatrix and Margriet have already been explained here. Prince Claus is the husband of (then-Princess-now-Queen) Beatrix; Mr van Vollenhoven is Princess Margriet&#039;s husband.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
