King's day

Every year we in the Netherlands celebrate King\'s day. It is the King's birthday and it is a national day off. There\'s music everywhere, people wear orange (our national colour) and people sell their stuff on the streets. It is now on April 27, but it can change with a new king or queen. They can also choose to keep it the same day. Our previous queen kept it on her mother\'s birthday (April 30), because her our birthday is in January and the weather is much colder then.
