there's a reception tonight in akeshus, does that mean that foreign royalty is already there to attend the event or can they show up later on?

i really cant wait for the gala!

not too fond of mette marit's "hat" (if it can be called a hat). she wore some lovely pieces that weren't hats but were absolutely delightful, but this one is far to simple and looks like one of those some people wear to go to the gym... :(

i loved martha louise's. looks superb.

Today's celebration at Akershus (the fortress) is meant for the Norwegians. Foreign guests will arrive on Friday and Saturday, with a birthday party in the Royal Palace as main event.

Princess Martha Louise's husband is looking a bit on the greasy/scruffy side.
I hope he cleans himself up better for the formal gala than he did in today's pics.:dry:
As for the King, IMO, he looks still very frail. As if he has never fully recovered from his heart problems that he had last year.
I'm glad that he is better, and I do hope he has recovered from his ailments, I just wished he looked healthier.
In either case-Happy Birthday! May he live a long and healthy life.
That is some fur the Queen is wearing!

Happy Birthday to King Harald, may he enjoy many more!

A question- has he completely recovered from the cancer & heart operation he had? He certainly looks well!

what a lovely gown for mette marit! i simply love everything about it, the colour, the jacket, the hairdo...

martha louise looks equally beautiful, such a nice and simple skirt!

I was wondering what the song was that the young lady sang at the unveiling of the statue of King Harold's mother.
Would anyone know?

Royal Palace,Oslo this afternoon.

Clip 1

Clip 2

NRK Nett-TV - hastighetsmåling


Courtesy NRK.

note:the sculpture stands in front of a temporary work of art made of 100 tons of ice,a gift from norwegian artists.

With todays temperature in Oslo,min 12 Celsius,I suppose it will remain there for a while...
