Day One, Part Duex

This exhausting day is almost over. At any rate, I am certainly over! After a brief rest, Eric and I went up to see Stonehenge. The bus ride up was about 1 1/2 hours, giving us almost 2 hours to explore. It is certainly impressive. No one knows how those enormous stones were placed there or by whom between 3,000 and 2200 BC. One of the stones was actually from Wales, over 250 miles away! Stonehenge is not the only stone monument in the islands but it is the only one with lintels ( stones across the top of others). The trip back to London was endless- over 2 1/2 hours.

A note about my lack of pictures: for some reason, the blog won't find pics on my iPad. It seems to think I'm using a phone. I am working diligently to correct the problem.

Tomorrow- the Victoria and Albert Museum and then Harrods!
