17. mai

17. mai er den dagen i året da alle ønsker godt vær. Og det hjelper. Værgudene tar tydeligvis hensyn til slike kollektive ønsker - for det er ikke ofte at Barnetoget får dårlig vær. I år utviklet nasjonaldagen seg til å bli riktig fin. Det var ikke kald vind en gang. 

Dette nettstedets redaktør har arbeidet 18 timer i døgnet siste uken i forbindelse med en større familiesamling i byen vår. Det er grunnen til sene og tildels manglende utgaver den siste tiden. Når jeg nevner dette med min egen familie, er det fordi stevnet, med 350 deltakere, kom i stand ved at noen henvendte seg til Haugalandet Net for å finne sin familie, slik mange andre har gjort, og fått hjelp til. Og så var det vår egen familie. 9 av de 350 kom hele den lange veien fra USA, og noen av dem fikk oppleve Norge og 17. mai for første gang. Slike ting nevner vi her på dette nettstedet. I sommer kommer flere - ikke familien min - men allikevel gode venner - etter at forbindelse ble opprettet via nettet.

Bildene i dag er fra Barnetoget, et fra ventingen, så flere barnebilder, før vi avslutter med et fra Folketoget.

English:
May 17 is that day in the year that all of us wish will have good weather. And it helps. The "gods of the weather" does not dare to make rain with all these people wishing the opposite. Once again, we got no rain during the childrens procession - and not even cold wind. And the weather got better as the day progressed. 

This site has been helping out many of you in finding family - and some of you we have met and helped during your first stays here in Haugesund. This May, it is my own family members that visited Haugesund and experienced their first May 17 - after having found their family through this site. The preperations for a 350 people family reuinon has made this sites editor work almost 18 hours a day the last week - making this site and you people out there "suffer", finding no og few updates of this site. Sorry!

Today's pictures include some of the USA Hustvedt's - and additionally we have pictures of the childrens procession and one from the afternoon citizens procession:
