''Don't go too far, or too-fast, Prince Bernhard warned them as they entered the car. Then they rode from Oyster Creek to Far Tottering on the Emmott Railway, took a trip on the Ghost Train, gave a shaking up to a Lady-in-waiting who went with them on the Whip, tried the Flying Horses and went into the Haunted Mirror Maze, where Princess Beatrix bumped her forehead. Altogether it was a morning that two little girls will long remember. (Credit Image: Keystone Pictures USA/ZUMAPRESS)
