Really?

Yes, really. That is a real elephant trunk. On Sunday my best friend and I visited palace "Het Loo" (haha, no, not the loo!), now a museum. It holds several rooms decorated for the ancestors of our current royals. This particular room was the sitting room for prince Hendrik, the husband of our Queen Wilhemina. We rather liked the cosy atmosphere of the room, thought nog quite the hunting trophees in it... There was a bear skin on the floor and a basket made out of an elephant leg.

A few more photos in the extra department.
