Norway's National Day

It's the most special day in Norway - the 17th of May. It's always a day where nobody works except in hospitals, the cabs, the police and other important jobs. ☺ The whole country dresses up om our national clothes, goes outside and walk together with bands playing and we wave our flags. In the evening people often get together and have a barbeque in the garden. The schools open up to have games for the children and everybody eats hotdogs and a lot of ice cream. It's worth coming to enjoy this fantastic celebration! ☺
