If anyone is interested, Lindy, a member of SRMB has translated a 2003 PdV article about the romance of Harald and Sonja.

Here is a link to the SRMB.

Interview of 'El Pais' newspaper to King Harald and Queen Sonja due to the visit of the Kings of Spain to Norway next June

Harald V, the citizen king
The Norwegian monarch is proud of the peace mediations that its country makes

“The marriages between princes and current people are more and more frequent. I believe that it is a great advance. It is normal to allow that you can share your life with that you choose”, affirms Harald V, citizen king of Norway, country that the aristocracy in the century XIX abolished and that it enjoys in the XXI one the greater indices of well-being of the world. Harald V, of 69 years, knows well of what she speaks. Being inheriting prince one married in August of 1968 with a plebian, Sonja Haraldsen, daughter of a businessman and fan to the fashionable design. The mere announcement of the wedding caused a strong popular controversy and until debates in the Storting, the Parliament, on the future of the monarchy. In the end, the queen was accepted by the Norwegians with all normality.

“I like the one of mediating country of La Paz and I would like that she continued being it in the future. Norway gives Nobel of La Paz and is founding of the UN and NATO, In this land, Norway is a great country”, comments with pride the king. To that Norway file it hopes to unite another chapter soon. If the findings of new and enormous bags of gas and petroleum in the sea of Barents are confirmed, the Nordic country could reinforce the function that already carries out, in words of the monarch, of “guarantor of the power security of Europe”, to the margin of Russia.
The Kings of Spain have predicted to visit Norway the month that comes. Our country has clearly optimistic connotations in the ceiling of the continent. “For us, it means vacations and good luck”, says queen Sonja. “More than 800,000 Norwegians they visit every Spain year, almost one fifth part of the population”, points the king. Harald V, expert regatista, playfully comments means means serious that in spite of its recent excuses - in 2003 she surpassed a cancer of vejiga- still is able to defy to Don Juan Carlos. It will be necessary to see it.

Today King Harald opened the new building for the The Joint Rescue Coordination Centres in Nothern Norway:
Quote:
The Joint Rescue Coordination Centres have the overall operational responsibility during search and rescue operations. The operations are coordinated either directly from one of two Joint Rescue Coordination Centres (JRCC) which are situated in Bodø and in Sola near Stavanger, or through one of 28 rescue sub centres.

You can see him barely in the crowd here, there he could see Norwegian Andreas Thorkildsen win the Javelin with a New Norwegian record.

20.00 The King is present for a show to mark that HM The Kings Guard is 150 years, Oslo Spektrum
Pic from http://www.mil.no/haren/hmkg/start/a...ticleID=122930

Today there is a huge military parade in Oslo, all the Kings guard and soldiers who have formerly served in that company will walk from the Akershus fortress to the Palace square where the King will do the yearly inspection, usually this takes place in the Kings Guard Camp but since they are 150 years now they do it infront of the Palace today. I wonder if anyone else from the family will show up. There is also a reception inside the Palace but we usually never see pictures of those.

I looked at the parade and the inspection of the guard. The crown prince had joined the king to inspect the soldiers. There was some cameras from nrk there. Maybe there will be something on the news later today.
