We're back from our camping expedition in Wiltshire.
We visited Avebury and Woodhenge, but we gave Stonehenge a miss due to the crowds. LA and I will visit at a more sensible time later in the year. Stonehenge seems to be one of those things that people consider "has" to be visited. The crowds of bored looking folks, listening intently to the audio "Guided tour" gadgets, put us off visiting. I guess they do the same to St Pauls Cathedral, so fairs fair.
So we visited Woodhenge instead, and then visited Avebury. I adore Avebury, it has a lovely peaceful feel to it and we had a beautiful day.
On the way home, we visited Danebury Hill fort. LA and Daddy explored the earthworks whilst Holly and I took a long but very pleasant walk around the hill.

We prefer Avebury over any of the other stone circles! We love being able to touch the stones, and the walk is just so much nicer. So is the ice cream from the post office!
