Before Haakon went to South Korea he attended the marking of Asker as Norway's third fairtrade municipality. Asker is where SKaugum is located

On Saturday Mette-Marit will be Godmother of Hurtigrutens new explorership Fram (which is also what King Haralds sailboats are called) Hurtigruten is very famous in NOrway and arranges beautiful cruises along the coast from Bergen and to the North. This new ship will also go to Greenland and is specialising on Polar cruises. Hurtigruten is arranging a huge event with some of Norways most famous artists at the Akershus dock to mark the christening May 19 13.00

But I guess now they are ironing their national costumes shirts and shining their shoes (or more likely someone does it for them  ) and hope for nice weather tomorrow, they will appear outside Skaugum around 8-8.30 to greet the local parade before they move to the Palace for a quick change and to watch the big parade in the center

Can't really see the pics much and can't enlarge them. They did seem to enjoy their conversion though.

Okay. I clicked on the pics provided by Her Majesty above and have a better view. I have to agree that black doesn't seem to be a good color on MM. She looks really faded. Blue might be as dark as she can go. Regardless, she looks happy as usual.

Oh, I like the beard. I've always thought it gave him a very mature look.

Either way he's very handsome. Without the beard he looks awful young.
