It's probably the most iconic site in England, I'm sure our friends from America rate it as the place to see besides London. |

Yes, Andy, Stonehenge is very cool. And probably a big tourist draw primarily because it's so famous. But I've seen many images of Stonehenge and no two are even remotely alike. Depending on the time of day, time of year, sun or clouds, it looks different all the time. The Grand Canyon's kind of like that. |
