Canterbury to Glastonbury.

---

We left Canterbury and made our way to Winchester. When we set the sat nav for the new route to Winchester, we realised the reason we were having trouble yesterday was because it was set for walking routes and not for driving. We encountered some difficulty on our way as there were road closures along the motorways, which set us back by about an hour, limiting our time in Winchester if we wanted to make it to Glastonbury by the end of the day. When we arrived at Winchester we explored the Cathedral and briefly looked at the Castle. We then drove on to Salisbury. We went to the Cathedral as explored some of the surrounding district. The next stop was Stonehenge. We were informed earlier that because it was the summer solstice, there had been about 36,000 people
there to witness the sunrise. The problem was that it was an overcast morning, and the sun wasn’t visible. By the time we arrived, they all had gone home except for the tourists. We then drove on to Glastonbury and has enough daylight time to climb the Tor and look at the 14th century belltower, belonging to the church that was demolished there during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the 16th century, and the surrounding countryside of Devon and Somerset.
