Description
17 May is the national day of Norway. On that day, they celebrate vary from place to place, but usually follow a traditional pattern that makes this a childrens day. The highlight is the childrens processions, made up of school classes marching through the local community, led by the school band. Most of the children have their own small Norwegian flag to wave, and the route is lined with enthusiastic onlookers. After the procession there are games, entertainments and film shows, and plenty of hot dogs and ice cream. |
