ANP Beeldbank ANP Beeldbank ANP Beeldbank ANP Beeldbank The King is really busy lately. Thumb up for him! Actually the last months the King had most engagements of all members of the Royal Family and it seems to be the same in February. He really does a great job! It's not surprising that he is the most popular and loved member of the NRF. ;) |

I expect it also has something to do with his health - now that it is ok, he'll be doing a lot, since there has been times in the past when he has been forced to take it easy, as there will be as he grows older. |

kongehuset.no - Blindernveien skole The little boy had originally invited King Harald to come to his birthdayparty , but the King said he would visit him at his school instead. And so the King and Queen visited this little boy's school. That's really cute. Maybe I should try to invite the Royal Couple as well... ;) |
Such a sweet story. I bet the little boy was over the moon. :flowers: It's nice to see royalty responding in such a way, especially where a child is concerned. Way to go King Harald!
