Stonehenge was pretty cool. I took a course called Great Mysteries of the Past where we did an entire section on Stonehenge with its own book and everything, but of course I forgot all that I had learned before except for a video we watched with a hippie festival going on. It was enjoyable.
Next we went to Salisbury, which is home to a cathedral and also the location on which Thomas Hardy based Melchester (used in Jude the Obscure). I haven't read that book, but I'm noting that particularly for my dad, who probably isn't even reading this. The most exciting part of the cathedral could very well have been the Latin inscription that I found. I haven't seen any since I've been here, which is strange. Expect a picture in the facebook album to follow later this week.
Final stop was Lacock, home to some Harry Potter scenery. The only one we saw was Godric's Hollow. It's much less eerie in the day time.
Classes start tomorrow! I'm excited for life to have some sort of purpose again. My goal for the week is to begin using the term "mental." I'm told it's our equivalent to calling something "sick." I hope you have enjoyed these pictures because it was a pain in the #$@% to do, and might not happen again.
