Norway's National Day

I was very fortunate to have been invited to visit my Norwegian friend. I spent the day with her and her family, experiencing at first hand, the traditions of another culture.

The morning was overcast and we started as a small group before merging with others from the surrounding area as seen here.

Shortly after this photo, the parade had gathered in the arena and there were speeches by local dignatories. The event closed with the singing of the Norwegian National anthem.
