Aw, I wish it could have been me, but I'm happy with their choices. Congrats guys!! -Shannon

Awesome :)

Congratulations, you two! Have fun! What do you win, though? lol. I didn't see any videos for the finalists, sooooo.....

Hi everyone, This is Thomas Pardee. I know I

Congratulations Thomas and Paula!! You two should feel so honored, two out of over six hundred applicants. What an accomplishment. Have a fantastic time in England and Scotland Thomas, and Paula, you and I can go to England together and have our own magical tour ;) (Paula's my sister, by the way, hehe)

: ) Congrats!!!!!!!! : )

Hey, sorry about weird sentences above, this thing is acting strange.... This is Thomas Pardee, and I know I've been pretty quiet on this thing up until now, but I just wanted to say that I am extremely excited and honored to be the Magical Tours intern. The caliber of videos was very high, and I loved seeing proof of what Ive known all along - Harry Potter fans are in a class all their own. I want to make it clear that Harry Potter is a lifetime passion of mine, and I intend to do my very best to make this a magical experience for those who join us on the tour. I know that it will be a challenge, and I can't wait to face it. I realize that I have not been given a fee trip, but instead a chance to push myself and grow as a person. I hope very much to do just that. I want to thank all of you who took the time to vote for me, including tons of friends and family (including my Mom, Paulina, Becka, Caitlin, Aunt Linda, the Omnicare ladies, and so many more I just can't think of at the moment who helped me) and of course, Magical Tours for making this dream come true. Thanks so much! I can't wait to see you in the U.K.! - Thomas (P.S., I also want to thank my grandfather, Bill Withrow, who cared enough to teach me early one how important travel is to a happy life. Thanks PaPa! Get well soon!)

Yes Thomas!!!!!! I was voting frantically on all of my different computers. I am so glad you own!

Congrats Thomas! I think you will make a great intern! Good choice, MT.

I liked Thomas' video. Entertaining. Congrats!

CONGRATULATIONS! :D

tough luck camillo. congrats winners

tough luck camillo. congrats winners

Great job, Thomas! Congrats! Hope you have lots of fun!

Congratulations Thomas and Paula. The videos were all impressive, it was hard to choose just one. I am going on one of the tours, so I will see you there. Can't wait to go!

I need to get on one of those tours. It sound's fun.

The tours are lots of fun. I went on a tour with Magical Tours the last two years. This year I am going with my nephew. The places we visited were awesome and everyone had a great time. I can't wait to go again.

Congratulations, Thomas! This is Paula and I want you to know that I am so happy for you and I know you will do an incredible job. Please facebook me and tell me all about it!!

Congrats Thomas and Paula! I know the decision had to be incredibly hard for Magical Tours, and I know they've made the right choice! While I wish it could have been me, I'm still extremely excited for the both of you! Maybe we can see about getting all the finalists to have a Harry Potter geeking-out meeting somewhere! Haha! Congrats and best of luck! You'll need to tell all of us how it goes, so we can live vicariously through you! Much Love! -Joel

aww he seems very deserving of this amazing adventure!

congrats, Thomas! Your video was by far the best. You are very talented. Good luck!

Congratulations to both of you! I voted for Paula, and I thought Thomas' video was excellent as well. As someone who made it to the 2nd round but was then cut, I was extremely disappointed...but seeing your videos and knowing that you're both passionate HP fans and very deserving of the job makes me feel better :) Have fun!!!

Congratulations to Paula and Thomas! Hey, Calithespian, I want to go too with you and Paula! After all, I am the mom!!! hee hee. Way to go Paula! We're very proud of you. Again, Kudo's to Thomas and all of the contestants!

Congratulations to you both!!! (I voted for Paula ;-)) Have fun in England!!

Congrats Thomas and Paula!
