I am a native in this world And think in it as a native thinks

Avebury
This charming village is about twenty minutes from Stonehenge. It was lovely to see green grass and flowers that aren't brown and dying, like most of those in Oxford this dry summer.
And the village sits in the middle of a henge and two stone circles that are much larger than Stonehenge—so large that I needed to look at aerial photographs to make any sense of it.
