We just walked from the bus about a mile across fields to a sea of humanity and waited for the sun to come up. Left the city at 1:30 arrived at Stonehenge at about 4:00 sunrise at about ten to six. It was amazing and wild. Hare Krishna people and druids were drumming Lots of strange costumes. I was right in the middle of the circle with my friend Laara.
