„Te salut zi de serbare
Sfanta zi de 10 Mai”
Americanul se numeste Tom Kinter, Curtea Reginei este virtuala si reprezinta un excelent site dedicat in primul rand Reginei Maria, apoi Dinastiei si nu in ultimul rand Romaniei.

Tom Kinter povesteste cum a descoeprit o carte despre Regina Maria si cum, fascinat de faptele acesteia, a pornit pe drumul descoperirilor si intelegerii a ceea ce a insemnat Regina Maria si istoria Romaniei. Tom Kinter a venit pana in Romania ca sa afle la fazta locului ce inseamna tara aceasta. A facut numeroase fotografii care inseamna totodata un album aproape complet despre cine suntem si cum aratam.
Este impresionant cum omul acesta a reusit sa adune atatea si atatea marturii si documente de epoca despre Regina Maria. Ceea ce a facut el echivaleaza cu munca unor istorici si a unor institutii. Noi romanii trebuie sa trecem pe la site-ul sau pentru a afla si a invata despre Romania.
El este in acelasi timp un artist fotograf.
In aceste zile este invitat de oficialitatile romane din America pt a participa la Festivalul de Arta Romaneasca. Unde credeti? La Maryhill Museum, adica acolo unde de asemenea este un semn al trecerii Reginei Maria prin America, un alt colt ce ii este dedicat.
