Morning in Trondheim port… Ship’s restaurant was pretilly decorated with flowers and national colors at breakfast. In addition five ladies and gents in the national costumes came to give us a concert of Norwegian music. They were singing very nice.
Sun was shinning when in the afternoon we were entering port of Kristiansund. This town is nicely located on the 3 islands connected by high bridges and ferries. Flags, flags everywhere… We also got Norwegian flags and the band comes to the pier to take us to the parade. Hundereds people in the streets, many of them in the national costumes, kids, music – a lot of fun! The route of the parade headed us to the hospitals so the sick people were also able to see some joy – they were waving their hands in the windows. The parade was marching about an hour, then they conducted us to the ship, captain blowed the horn and we sailed out.
