I HATE how everythings surrounded by palm trees. Remember Hogwarts (and various other Harry Potter places) is located in Britain. Hogwarts is in the Highlands of Scotland for peats sakes!
Sorry, rant over!

I pursuaded my mom to let me go but with my grades taking a dramatic downfall... I don't think I'm going..
But my whole family might go during August. That's a long way off...

Yes, it's strange to see Hogwarts with palm trees around it, but seeing it in person was amazing. The pictures themselves are great, but just being there and seeing it right in front of you is something else.
Besides, there aren't palm trees really anywhere near the castle itself as far as I saw today. The trees don't look too tropical and do fit in with the area.
