Two very different queens

On this date in 1542, Mary Stuart, the future Queen of Scotland and France, was born. I once posted that Mary never met a bad decision she did not run to embrace, and several of my readers told me they thought that was funny. I think it was also quite true. Mary seems to have been a dreadful judge of character. She was also impulsive to a fault, and rarely considered the consequences of her actions. I concede that her life was not an easy one. But who could have had a more traumatic childhood and girlhood than her cousin Elizabeth? She withstood her trial by fire, though, and went on to become one of England’s greatest rulers.
Here is yet another reason to want to visit Wales—a spectacular show of the aurora borealis.
