QUEENS DAY IN AMSTERDAM

How do they ring in Queens Day -- an annual celebration in honor of the Dutch Queen Mother -- in Amsterdam?  Orange balloons and street fairs dotted the city.  Dam Square -- the city center -- was transformed into an amusement park last night complete with a house of horrors in front of the Royal Palace.  A Genuine "Drag Queen Olympics" was meanwhile held a block away.
