Bay Ridge Kicks It Norweign Style Tomorrow

Forgotten NY's Kevin Walsh reminded us that tomorrow is the Norwegian Day Parade in Bay Ridge. The parade celebrates Norway's adoption of a constitution and many people of Norwegian descent or with Norwegian ties celebrate by wearing traditional Scandinavian clothing, riding in Viking ship float, dressing as Henrik Ibsen and, yes, donning Viking helmets.

The parade begins at 1PM, 5th Avenue, 90th-66th Streets, Bay Ridge. Lost City points out Norwegian parts of Bay Ridge and check out Forgotten NY's coverage of last year's parade (that's where the photo is from). Also, there were some vikings in Coney Island last year.

And for more Norway, here's the country's official website in the U.S.
