Stone wonders!

Today we got up really early and some people didn't sleep at all (Everyone but me...)
Well anyways we got to Stonehenge two minutes after the tour started. I got some good pictures but I also got cold. We went right up to the stones and saw some medieval graffiti (WOW that's old ) The one I found said: 1886. I can't remember the rest! (AHHH! Can't spell today.) Then we got back into our cab and drove away into the sunset wait no... the sunrise do do do do... We drove to Avery and on our way into the town we saw a bunch of stone pillars. They were shaped like: A shark, a horse,and a rabbit. There was a bunch of cows there and you could walk right up to them. Dad touched one but it walked away. The taxi driver drew us a map of the when the town wasn't there. It looked like an alien. As we got into the town we saw a lot of sheep. We walked around and tried to avoid sheep dung! Then we went to the place where part of Harry Potter and the philosophers Stone. Josephine and I were over joyed as for Dad... well he didn't want to go in. We had a lot of fun looking into rooms and recognizing them such as Snape's classroom.The place was called Lacock abbey.
We went to Bath but we didn't go into the baths. Since we're going to Rome. We ate fudge though.

Then we went to Sarum a place where a castle and a cathedral once stood luckily we didn't have to climb the big ditch that was around it. We couldn't go where the castle was though because we were two minutes late. We then went back to the house we are staying at. Pictures tomorrow as well we are off to see the horse trials.
