Mirjam 132

The tradition is a low budget initiative that will never add substantially to the dreams of the Dutch neo-liberal politicians and economists that rule this country. But it's a private initiative and so let's hope that those people in high places will indulge initiatives like this. Charity is always a welcome side note in the annual speech of our Majesty so let's keep it at that. The low budget prohibited the use of transparent wine glasses but you have my word that Mirjam is drinking hot wine here. Note the way the wine steams up the left lens in the "Celia" Rodenstock glasses. Nice!
