I love MM dress, is good to see her in softer colors and this dress is specially beautifull, clasic and with a great fabric.
M. Louise has such a beautiful face I don't like the recent look on her hubbie though, the Queen I didn't like how she looks, to "worked out" if you undestand me.
Happy birthday to the King, I can't wait to see the Spanish Royal family appear.

Princess Mette Marit looks really regal here. But the Royal Couple is very elegant too!

Vanesa.

Its normal winter weather, minus 10, only 2m/s wind, no unusual delays so far. A message says the traffic goes as normal Oslo Lufthavn

I don't think so.. It's said to be a private dinner. I think we won't get to see any pictures of it... but let's keep on crossing our fingers.

Just to clarify what happens today

13-16 Arrivals at the airport, pictures will be taken
18.00 Event in City Hall, lots of press, live on TV2, but TV2 does not have a free online service, so I think it can not be seen online
21.00 dinner at Skaugum, no press but might be some pictures of them arriving in cars or something like that

NOT all royals are comming today.


***********
the scandinavian royals dont have private planes, but sometimes, very rarely, they use a military plane, and sometimes for state visit the minstry of forreign affairs charter a plane

Most of the reigning royal house do have the use of special planes for their transportation.

No,you are not the only one, I agree with you.
Martha's dress is more attractive (albeit an old gown according to some)- she looks lovely. Can't see the regal quality of Mette-Marit

It was, in my opinion, a very simple dress and the ocassion seams to be mucht more serious! Although I think it suits her skin and hair colour very well!
