Like the pictures, Oddern. I like the blending of cultures with the kilt being worn with the bunad.
People tend to forget that many Scots settled in Norway, including an ancestor of Edvard Grieg.
Regards,
Mike

Looks like a nearly obscene amount of fun was had by all. They really do know how to party in Norway, don't they?

Wow!! I didn't know that. I'm impressed of your knowledge about the great norwegian composer. I looked it up, and it was Edvard Grieg's great grandfather who came from Scotland i 1770 and settled in Bergen, Norway. The name Grieg comes from the Scottish name Greig.

The best boss I have ever had was a Scot from Biggar named Sandy Greig.
His South African-born son Tony was captain of England cricket at about the time I worked for Sandy.
What surprised me was the number of people I met who presumed that Sandy must be a descendant of a Norwegian Grieg!
