May 17th, is Norway's National Day which is celebrated all across
the nation,from all levels of community, each community shows
parades, bands, flags and they was singing national anthem.
I met our contact person Cathrine in Oslo with my co-youth delegate.
We took the Oslo's main street, Karl Johan’s gate and she started
to explain us about what was going on that time. On that date
in 1814 Norway adopted the new Constitution.
People wearied different costumes so she told us each part of Norway
has the own color of traditional dress and we were observed it on the way.
The President of Parliament was also standing out side to the parliament
balcony and great the people had march parade and continue to the Loyal
Palace where the king and his family standing on the front balcony, waving
to the crowd.
It was good to see the children having parade, and was so interesting
to see many women doing parade, bands and hands up flags.
I had a memorial picture with people dressing traditional dress so this will
remind me the Special day in Norway.
