#glasto Day one

 

Nothing for the cameras to film so they find a food vendor to talk to.

It seems that Garlands were this year’s thing.

#glasto – walking around

 

Glastonbury is a big site. For the first 24 hours I used my Garmin (until the battery went). Over 23km walked.

Have a look at the satellite image to see the festival fields.

I also measured this in 2010. Here is the map from that year’s festival.

Filming in near Tufton Street

 

Today’s excitement. They are filming. Just off Smith Square in London, near my office. It’s a popular place for filming because the streets still have period street lighting.

Lyme Regis

 

Next stop on our holiday tour was Lyme Regis. We stopped for a couple of hours between Dorchester and Okehampton.

We strolled around the town buying a couple of Eye Spy books for the holiday. We also bought a few T Shirts.

I think we quite liked the town. Much nicer than Dorchester.
