It only took Cheryl 7 years, but she finally made it over to visit me in England! Krystle came with her so it was a double treat. Cheryl has family down in Dorset, so I went to go and pick them up from the near-by village of Avebury which is located half way between where she and Krystle were staying and my house. Luckily, Avebury is an historic village so before sweeping them off to the White Horse, we had a wander around the Avebury Henge. The link takes you to a website which goes over the history and the modern story of the henge. I couldn't word it any better, so I highly recommend you have a noodle through the the site. If you search Avebury using Google maps you can clearly see the ditch surrounding the ancient henge. Even if the archaeology goes a bit over your head, the walk is still wonderful, and you get great views!
Cheryl and Krystle wave hello!
Some of the ditch, and some of the ancient stones.
