Crownprince Haakon also looks wonderful. He has a "mature look" that fits him a lot. He is no more "the young man" but the man. I can see in his face the Norwege future King.

Vanesa.

I think that he is making a good job. One day, he willbe a good king.

Can somebody explain why this red circle ? Is there anything special with this toy ?

[acdc1]

Wasn't the toy Haakon was carrying Ingrid Alexandra's famous White Bear? It looked like it.

Maybe the toy with the circle around it was one that Magnus is especially fond of. I'm not sure though.

Yes it says that Haakon and MEtte-MArit knows how important it is to bring the favourite toys of the children. Actually Sverre Magnus toy looks like a monkey, so maybe they have visited the Zoo In Kristiansand and he got a Julius toy, a very famous monkey living in the Zoo in Mette-Marits hometown.

another article states that for this years Open-Palace exhibition which feature objects belonging to the King and Queen, there is a section about the grandchildren and the toys the play with when they visit the King and Queen, and apparantly they had wanted to include Ingrids white bear but she had said NO and they had to make do with a picture of it

Palace mum on Haakon's birthday holiday - Aftenposten.no
Here there's english version of this article- aftenposten has english version (fortunately for non- norwegian people

[Larzen]

The articles just say he is 34 today and that the palace spokesperson says they will celebrate in private and that they are on vacation. Some papaers say they are at Maagerø. Others say they are abroad.

Last year they posed for pictures but it does not seem like they will today.
King Harald is deffenetly in Mallorca.

yes they are on vacation. The first state council after the vacation is August 10th and the schools start around the 15-20th of augsut so I guess we can expect to see them around then

On their wedding day the 25th of August they will be in Tromsø to attend the seminar called "Can the Ocean solve the AIDS riddle?" and a cultural event in the center of Tromsø, both related to their humanitarian foundation, and the next day they will start a 3 day county trip of the nother part of the county of Troms
