Welcome, Amanda! Lucky you, living in Florida, so beautiful! Where did you live in Asia? That's great that you're getting an english history degree! Definitely go explore England 🙂

If you love the Tudors this is the place for you! This site and forum is amazing, I spend way too much time here! Have fun and I look forward to seeing your posts.

Japan, wow! That must have been so cool and different 🙂 About England in 2012: aren't the Olympics going to be there then? Coincidentally I am also hopefully going in 2012, the summer. I wonder–will the tour sites (the Tudor attraction are the ones I want to see!) be more crowded because people will be there for the Olympics or less crowded because people will be at the Olympics??

HI AMANDA!  I was raised in Florida … the Tampa area.  How do you like it there?  I also lived in Japan growing up as my dad was in the Navy.  Were you stationed at Okinawa?  You are so lucky you get to go to London … it's one of my dream vacations!!!
