Norway's new king pays tribute to his late father as tens of thousands mourn
Tens of thousands of mourners have paid their respects to Norway's King Harald V, who died at 89. People laid flowers and condolence cards for the second day outside the royal palace in Oslo. The square was covered in flowers, and palace staff moved some to keep pathways clear. Harald V died Friday morning, and Crown Prince Haakon, 53, became King Haakon VIII. His wife is now Queen Mette-Marit, and their daughter, Crown Princess Ingrid Alexandra, is the heir. Norway is in mourning, with some celebrations have been postponed. The monarchy remains symbolic, but the royal family holds a significant cultural role.
