Contexto cultural

The 'Søndagstur' is a national institution. Shops are closed on Sundays, so everyone goes for a walk. The phrase 'Ut på tur, aldri sur' is taught to children to encourage them to walk even in rain or snow. A 'tur' is often accompanied by a 'matpakke' (packed lunch), even for short walks. Walking is a common first date. It's considered less 'stiff' than sitting in a restaurant.
