Our royal family had the privilege to travel to Westby Wisconsin for their hometown festival Syttende Mai. The weekend was filled with so many fun things, we got to watch the kiddie parade where the children were all dressed up in their Norwegian costumes, we got to see the beautiful rosemaling, wood working, and we ate some of the traditional treats like rommegrot (it was surprisingly delicious you can look up the recipe and you will see why I was surprised). One of my favorite parts of the trip was the Amish shopping. Dan and Carol Swenson were our tour guides as we drove through the country visiting the different Amish shops, the assortment of flowers, bakery goods, and spices to purchase were great. On the last day of the weekend we got to visit with several different royalty groups and to top the weekend off we attended their parade. Thanks for the great time!
