Stonehenge

Wednesday we went to Stonehenge, a stone circle over 4000 years old. It was built using some stone that were brought over 100 miles, all the way from Wales.

It was used by the people of the time as a calendar. When the sun fell through certain openings, they could tell what month of the year it was. They were agricultural people, very connected to the sun and the time of year.

But, I really liked the sheep grazing around the stones!
