England: Stonehenge

Andrea and I drove off to Stonehenge (it's only about 30 minutes from Basingstoke). There's really nothing else out that way other than fields of heather - but it was interesting to actually see something that you have seen in pictures for a long time.

Unfortunately, there's really not much to explain about Stonehenge, since they really don't know much about it. They think it was used for religious ceremonies back in pre-historic times, the whole Druid building them thing is false, and the first stones came from far away Wales, while the others were more intelligently brought closer up north.
