Governor Dayton Hosts Norway’s Royalty for Dinner
ST. PAUL - Governor Mark Dayton and other Minnesota dignitaries are at a royal dinner tonight with the King and Queen of Norway.
King Harald and Queen Sonja are nearing the end of their 8-day visit across Minnesota and Iowa. Tonight they're dining at the Governor's residence with Minnesotans who've been honored by the Norwegian government.
Earlier, the royals couple were at church services at Augsburg College. And tomorrow the couple will fly to Duluth where they will re-dedicate Enger Park. King Harald's father, King Olaf V, first dedicated the park back in 1939.
