My first visit was to Salisbury and to Stonehenge. I was surprised by how little there is at Stonehenge - really nothing but the stones, although a visitor centre is planned eventually.

The next day I visited Bosham, where Canute is said to have ordered the tide to stop. It still comes over the road today.

I also went to Portsmouth and saw the HMS Victory and HMS Warrior.
