The Crown Princess Family of Sweden and Crown Prince Family of Norway bonded last weekend in Gotland, Sweden.

Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway and their elder child, Princess Ingrid Alexandra, travelled to Gotland in Sweden to spend time with Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and her husband, Prince Daniel and their two children, Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar.

Both royal houses released a photo from the weekend with the Royal Court of Sweden saying, “The Crown Princess Family appreciated being able to spend time with their Norwegian friends and relatives, as well as having the opportunity to show them this unique part of Sweden.”

The Norwegian Royal Court said: “The Crown Prince Couple and Princess Ingrid Alexandra spent some beautiful late summer days on Gotland in the Baltic Sea last weekend, together with the Swedish Crown Princess Family…[they] greatly appreciated the visit to Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel.”
