Summer Solstice at Stonehenge

It's already more than a week ago (21st of July), and with the heatwave it feels like a year... but I hitched to Stonehenge for the Solstice this year!



I filmed a part of the ceremony while I sat on Freddie's shoulders. Me trying to get a shot of his head almost made us fall over (got saved by this huge stone right behind us - I'm glad we didn't knock it over!), hence the interesting camera work.

In all honesty, it was one of the least spiritual nights of my stay in the UK (and one of the most spontaneous and amusing ones too), though I did spot some people that seemed to connect with the stones and the stars and whatnot. Took some pictures of them too.
