    I dearly missed them too. Since Princess Irene and Princess Christina arrived together and not accompanied by their sons as on 30 April I guess no royal cousins were present. The dinner was for foreign guests. I guess that included the Corps Diplomatique. Judging by the tables there probably was no room for the royal cousins.
    I have not seen an official guestlist.
