AI GeneratedAttendees and observers describe a touching and emotional ceremony honoring the late King Harald. While the event was marked by national grief and sadness, particularly regarding the Queen's visible emotion, it also served as an uplifting transition as the public welcomed King Haakon and the new Queen.
It feels like a very good and worthy ceremony for our former king and we all loved him so
much so it was fantastic to see all the world leaders come here today and everything worked
out so well.
It was a beautiful ceremony.
It was a very beautiful ceremony for the king and it was very touching seeing the queen
here as well and also during the ceremony when she placed the red rose, it was very
touching.
It's been a very emotional day from this grief that we have had in this whole country.
I have travelled from the west coast today to be here.
King Harald was an amazing man but I think King Haakon will do a good job as well.
I felt that it was uplifting.
We got to cheer to the new king and queen but it was also really sad and broke my heart
when Sanja came out on the balcony because since King Harald's death you have seen in
her eyes that she's been really touched by the passing of the king.
So when she came out on the balcony I think a lot of people got really moved by seeing
her reaction to all the people.
So it was uplifting but also sad at the same time.
