Stonehenge

Driving through the English countryside is beautiful. I was relaxed and enjoying the ride, while Taylor had to worry about keeping the car on the right - I mean left side of the road. He was amazing. Thank goodness for GPS systems that help us navigate to any destination in the world. One fun thing we did while we drove on this vacation was to listen to several Roald Dahl books on cd. Many of his stories take place in England so that made it especially fun.



It is very cool to drive past rolling hills and farmland and then BOOM there is Stonehenge. How did those rocks get there? Who lifted them into formations and why? We listened to the audio descriptions, but still don't know the answers. It was an interesting stop and one we would recommend. The weather however was freezing so maybe if you go you should plan a summer visit.
