Birthday girl

Our little baby is 3 today - summer solstice. This is taken up Glastonbury Tor just after sunrise circa 5 am. She is mid bubble production.

In the background are people undertaking a ceremony to welcome the sun, I was stood amongst them until the witch leading the proceedings asked people to join hands, my que to leave the group.

If I had to describe the morning;

We walked up a hill. My back hurt from carrying Sophia. A mixture of drunk and deluded people mixed with people who should know better. It got light in ever whiter shades of grey. A witch talked rubbish. People followed instructions to welcome spirits. A symbolic fire was lit - symbolic of the warm bed I left. We went home, we all went back to bed.

These experiences stay with you and make you the person you are.
