King Harald was admitted to Rikshospitalet with an infection just before Christmas, but was discharged on 21 December. – The king is recovering, but will take it easy for a few days, was the message from the Palace at the time. On 22 December, the news came that the 85-year-old has decided to sign up as an active competitive sealer. – Everything has its time, says King Harald to the news program “The year with the royal family”. For the service in the beautiful chapel in Holmenkollen, King Harald and Queen Sonja came together with the crown prince’s family. It was uncertain whether King Harald could participate in the service, but just before 12 o’clock the car pulled up in front of the door of the chapel. With the help of crutches, he took the few steps on the hard-trodden snow and was warmly welcomed by the parish priest in Ris church sound, Paul Erik Wirgenes.
