A couple hour drive away and we were at Stonehenge. Along the way I learned more about traffic laws and observed again the remarkable number of ‘luxury’ brand automobiles and Fords. Leasing has become very popular here so all the cars are ‘fancy’ Jaguars, Audi, Mercedes, Renault, BMW, etc rule the roadways.
There are cameras that tag your plates so if you make it from highway entrance to exit too quickly you can get a ticket.
Nigel had arranged us to have audio tour gadgets so we hopped the shuttle and once off we were able to wander and press a button every time we wanted to hear what was to play about that angle. It was amazingly informative and easy to ramble about and listen, taking pictures as we wanted. 
the day was spectacular and every few feet provided a new angle/view. I wish I could remember all I learned to share but the main point was…. it wasn’t the Druids. It may have been my cheeky friends however.
People were asking to take pictures of Sackboy and Linda took a pic of a man taking a pic of me taking a pic of a Sackboy! He has become quite the sensation
The volunteers were lovely to take pictures for us
We returned the favour to others along the way including a nice lady from Michigan, my son-in-laws home state who took ours first
We decided to walk back down through the field and were part way there when I remembered I’d brought my Mug from The Tin Woman to take a picture with. I decided it was an unimpressed Wookiee moment. Nigel was my lovely assistant for the shot.
It was at this point we realized there had been an earthquake and Vancouver Island was gone from my pack!
Linda and I see faces in everything apparently
Back at the interpretation centre we decided to eat before exploring. Delicious and followed by waffle cones, mmmmmm
Wandered about the replica estimated village for builders and then into the interpretation centre which was lovely
I of course bought two books. Pop ups of Stonehenge and London. The money is quite lovely.
We wound our way back through the countryside with the top down and stopped local to pick up Chinese takeaway. They had never seen ‘Babe’ and wondered why I was making strange sounds at the sheep earlier so we watched it before bed.
it has not been an easy day due to something back home but I couldn’t be with more supportive, kind people. I shall miss them desperately
