Thousands celebrate summer solstice at Stonehenge
Somehow, with all the technology available to us, prehistoric methods of marking time, especially the celebration of the summer solstice, always seem to strike a familiar chord.
Remember: Time waits for no man.
Via The BBC:
Up to 21,000 druids, spiritualists and revelers gathered at Stonehenge early on Tuesday with many beating drums and playing pipes to celebrate the annual summer solstice.
A spokeswoman for English Heritage said they had witnessed a "fantastic sunrise" and enjoyed a great atmosphere at the start of the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere.
Cheers rang out across Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire as the sun rose at 4:58 a.m. (0358 GMT).
