Stonehenge and Avebury Prehistoric Stone Circles

On our way back from the music festival, we spent a couple nights in the Bath area.  On our way to Bath, we stopped by Stonehenge and Avebury, 2 very mystical stone circles, just 4 or 5 thousand years old.  It was a gorgeous, sunny day.

I found Stonehenge to be quite mesmerizing, out in the middle of a wide open field. So old, so mysterious, so much that we don't know...







A short drive away, we found Avebury, which is a much larger stone circle with a small village in the center.  The stones are very large, and spaced very evenly apart.  We enjoyed a lovely afternoon and ice cream within the circle, and walked among the sheep in the stone laden fields.
