Hipp hipp...

...hurraaa!!!! Didn't you know that? That's what you scream for an answer on the "Settene Mai", the national day of all the crazy norwegians. There are many different things you do on this special day and the traditions probably vary also in each region but I got to know how they do it in Sandefjord from the special view as a participant!! Det var veldig gøy!!! (This was a lot of fun)
So here are some pictures from the parade which might give or give not ;) you some clue about what the are doing there exactly. I think you have to experience it your self one day.

Slices Apples

Sitting in math's class and can't participate because of my little mac... some PC programs are required.
So I'm sitting here with the girls eating sliced apples and enjoying the beautful morning, knowing it is the last schoolday which parts us from our next long weekend and the super exciting 17th of May to which I'm really looking forward to, since I haven't celebrated it yet. (For people who have no idea what I'm talking about the 17th of May is the norwegian national day where they celebrate the 193th anniversary of the norwegian constitution. Before that they where in a union with sweden)
I was asked to help carrying the school banner on the parade with my friend Mavis.
I hope I get some pictures how the whole thing looked afterwards to share them with you.
Bye for now
