Syttende Mai Parade

A parade…really…in walking distance…sure we can go check it out!IMG_4698

How big could a Syttende Mai (Norwegian Independence Day) parade be?  It could be big…HUGE in fact by parade standards.  It was over an hour long, which allowed us time to finish grilling dinner, walk down, and be late and still get our fill of the parade!  Thomas just kept looking at everything going on.  Stella on the other hand wanted nothing to do with the parade.  Poor puppy almost lost her noodles.  IMG_4693

We heard that people in our neighborhood were very proud of the Scandinavian heritage and this parade helped solidify that for us!  Guess we landed in our home away from home in Seattle!   IMG_4697IMG_4707
