August 12- England Bound by Shawn
The drive back to England was somber. Leaving the lovely Gwuan Valley was tough. Our days of worship, contemplation and exploration were coming to an end. Wales has been quite beyond what everyone had imagined. This hidden corner of the world has captured a felling that leaves one feeling like a time traveler.
We stopped at two locations on the way to our evening location of Holmbury St. Mary. First, the Wells Cathedral, where we took a quick hour to explore- just enough to make us want to return. Our last location was Stonehenge- a surprise to all. After studying the ancient monument we took a few minutes to think about our lives as monuments and masterpeices of creation. We asked ourselves, "Do we really look at our lives with that perspective?"
A nice meal and great nights rest would prepare us for our final full day of pilgrimage.
