Stonehenge

My brother sent me a puzzle of Stonehenge to make, which was a great reminder of home so I built it for my blog and learned a little more about Stonehenge...



Stonehenge Theories!
Stonehenge has fascinated people for thousands of years. The monument dates back so far that it is shrouded in mystery. For thousands of years people have speculated over the true purpose of the massive structure. This speculation has led to many theories surrounding Stonehenge which include the following:

  • The UFO Stonehenge Theories - Built and visited by Aliens

  • The Computer Theories - it has been suggested that Stonehenge was the equivalent of an ancient computer accurately predicting eclipses and the sunset, sunrise, moonset and moonrise during the soltice periods

  • The Human sacrifice Stonehenge Theories

  • The Stonehenge Builders Theories - That it was built by the Druids or the Phoenicians or the Greeks

  • The Atlantis Stonehenge Theories - That it was built by the people of the lost civilisation of Atlantis

  • The Healing Theories - that Stonehenge was a source of healing energy

Yorkshire Puds

I have done these before but lately they haven't risen much and so I tried new recipe, I will be doing a lot more British Recipes soon seeing as I can't get many decent British favourites out here. On the list is Shepherds Pie ) they always make it with beef out here), Pork Pie and f course Banoffee Pie!

Let's go fly a kite

...up to the highest height :)

not only did we get it up but it brought much joy to the kids on the beach...everyone was looking at our $10 Costco Dragon Kite (with a 7ft wingspan) and taking pictures!

The Secret

I watched The Secret, for those of you that haven't seen it, its worth a watch especially if things aren't going particularly right for you. I'm a cynic but I thought it can't harm to give it a go...so I started practising The Secret and started a vision board to visualise the things I want...obviously its a secret :)
