Glastonbury

It might look sunny but it was raining - I was keeping positive - our £1 jackets were a great buy
Still getting a thumbs especially since the rain stopped - it started again later though
Ken quite liked the 3D silent disco - the music was rubbish - Lol and  I kept our ear phones off most of the time
Looking towards the 'Other Stage' - the second biggest stage
Team Glastonbury - just before heading home

Glastonbury
Kere arrived early one Sunday morning (6am) and the following weekend the festivities began. We set out on Thursday afternoon for Glastonbury, we arrived and it began to rain, typical Glastonbury weather. The next thundery downpour was just as we found our camping spot - luckily these downpours were short and sweet. Our camp spot was about 15minutes walk from the 'Other Stage' and close enough to the toilets that it was too much of a walk but far enough away that we didn't have to smell them!!

The first night the bands hadn't started, we went to a silent disco which was average, Lol and I were in bed by 1am but the boys stayed out to have a better look around. 

Friday morning we woke to rain - and it rained and it rain - it didn't stop until 2pm so we put on our rain jackets and our gumboots and went exploring. That night it cleared and we caught some of the bands.

The following day we woke to brilliant sunshine - we spent time hanging out at our campsite and went off to see more acts - the biggest one being Bruce - he was so good.

Sunday we packed up nice and early and got a train back to London, we were very happy that we left that day rather than the Monday, so many people leaving at once would have been awful.

Glastonbury was something that had to be seen to be believed, the amount of people in one space was amazing and the size of the event itself was huge!
