Stone Henge:
I always thought that they were built by aliens too. When aliens built the pyramids, they had some left over stones, so on their way back to space, they have decided to drop some off. They landed on earth, and formed Stone Henge. It was quite magical to see Stone Henge in snow, and they looked smaller than I have imagined. You have to pay an entrance fee, and with that, it came with an audio. According to the audio, it was built around the same time as the Pyramids!! Hmm...maybe my theory was right!
It was bitterly cold that day at the Stone Henge. You could feel the cold air cutting through your body. I had to brave the cold for some photos:
We made a stop to Avebury Circle on our way back, which was 32 km away from Stone Henge. Avebury is the site of an ancient monument consisting of a large henge, several stone circles, stone avenues and barrows, surrounding the village of Avebury in the English county of Wiltshire. It is one of the finest and largest Neolithic monuments in Europe, about 5,000 years old.
It was much smaller than Stone Henge, and not as magical. Not recommended unless you made a stop when going back from Stone Henge.
This nice village house was Red Lion- The bad restaurant/guest house that we had lunch. They told us that we had to wait for 45 minutes for lunch as it was a bank holiday. We agreed. However, we did not realize that the place was badly heated, you actually felt cold inside and we had to wear our coat! The food finally arrived after 60 minutes, and they were mediocre. It was the worst dining experience that I had in the whole trip.
The fish and chips that made us waited for 60 minutes!
