It always rains in november

Based on a true story. The continuing adventures of nietroooh, Alba and Aurora.

No, it’s not Stonehenge.

Where: Callanish Standing Stones, Callanish, Scotland.
What: Some 50 stones, erected around 1800 BC, that combine to form the site called ‘Calanais I’ (over 20 such monuments exist on the Isle of Lewis, Calanais I is the largest). Cross-shaped, the theory about the alignment of the stones is that they mark significant points of the lunar cycle. The centre of the site contains a stone tomb in which human remains have been found.
Folklore tells of giants who are turned to stone as a punishment for refusing to convert to Christianity.
True to the title of this blog, the photo was taken during heavy rain and wind.
