Today was National Day in Norway. Basically, everyone dresses up in National Costume ("Bunad") and marches down the street behind a brass band, all in celebration of the signing of the constitution in 1814. We followed the noise and joined the end of a parade. It wasn't very interesting but I guess, walking along in my orange cagoule, I didn't feel very Norwegian. Afterwards we went to the beach to fly Mr Toucan. It was a bit windy and Mr Toucan threw in the towel. We tried to fix him and get him to fly but to no avail. Sophie decided that Mr Toucan was "rubbish" and asked me to make her a new kite called "Mr Elecan" (like Mr Toucan but a bit more sturdy).
