Thanks to everyone for your great welcome! 😉

To wreckmasterjay: Unfortunately Catherine of Aragon is not as famous here in Spain as it’s in England. Her parents “Isabel” and “Fernando” (“Los Reyes Católicos”) that is Queen Isabella I of Castile and King Ferdinand II of Aragon (The Catholic Monarchs) are the famous ones xD. Talking about their children, “Juana La Loca” (Joanna the Mad) is more famous than her sister Catherine. She’s famous because she fell “madly” in love with “Felipe El Hermoso” (Phililp the Hadsome). From my point of my, it’s a great pity that Catherine is not very well-known here. There are certain books about her, but not as many as in England 🙁

To Boleynfan: I’ve never visited the US but I hope I” go there one day 😉 Let’s see what happens with the book… the deadline is too close…xDD

To Claire: I went to Roquetas de Mar once 😉 I had such a great time there.

Bye! xx

Wreckmasterjay, I think that everybody had to be shocked by the news. I’m sure it was such a great scandal, since Charles V (Catherine’s nephew) was against this divorce and he was ruling part of Europe at the time. The Catholic Monarchs and Henry VII saw Catherine’s marriage to Arthur and then to Henry as a good oportunity to unite both kingdoms, and the divorce had to be a great fuss!
