Thousands celebrate summer solstice at Stonehenge
Up to 21,000 druids, spiritualists and revelers gathered at Stonehenge early on Tuesday with many beating drums and playing pipes to celebrate the annual summer solstice. A spokeswoman for English Heritage said they had witnessed a "fantastic sunrise" and enjoyed a great atmosphere at the start of the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. Cheers rang out across Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire as the sun rose at 4:58 a.m. (0358 GMT).
