Description

The Parkinson's and friends take a motoring holiday to Norway and Sweden. The reel includes Dufay colour sequences of the Parkinson children wearing foreign costumes walking up a garden pathway introducing and concluding film. Scenes show mountainous landscapes, visits to waterfalls, a market in Drammen and the lido at Bygdones in Oslo. The party are seen stopping for picnics along the way as the road trip continues across the border into Sweden with shots of a lake near Karlstad. A brief sequence back in Norway shows a timber being stacked in a large pile from conveyor.
