Today is May 17 which is Norway's National Day. A day like the 4th of July in the US. It is celebrated nationwide with children's parades and lots of festivities! A great chance for the missionaries to get out among the people and mingle. A friend in the branch Carries serves sent these pictures of some of the flag waving at the parade in Stavanger!! Tusen takk, Julie!!

Looks like it was a sunny day there, probably not too warm, though! Carrie is still wearing her coat. I don't think she had any idea how much she would wear that coat!! She is going to want to burn it when she gets home!! :)

I had forgotten Norweigans are so nationalistic with the flags! Yes, she will want to burn the coat, IF she even brings it home! :)
