I want to know who stayed dry inside their tent. What a GREAT selling point to be made....

The album name the pic is from is called Glastonbury 2005. It looks like a music festival in England. I don't know anything about it, I was just doing a image search for a hot womens hockey team when I saw it.

Here are 2 more interesting pics ...

This many people ...

Glastonbury has a special religous signifigance for Britain.It was considered a sacred spot by the druids and supposedly Christ visited this spot as a child.After his crucifixation a uncle of Christ established a church on this spot,and planted a piece of Christs crown of thorns whiched bloomed into a bush,they continue to keep a thorn bush on this site today.

A monastary was established there until the time of King Henry the 8th,when it was closed and buildings tore down.

King Arthur is reported to be buried there and there is a plague in one of the Monastary courtyards stating it is his burial spot.

This area also has drawn the occult and new age religions,who believe the area is aplace of mystical powers.

Over the years because of this it home to some very big Music festivals,and yes rain is vey common.

Gives new meaning to the tent feature called
"Bathtub floor"

Christ visited this spot as a child.

Um !! reality check time, how likely is it that a Jewish carpenter with his wife and family visited Britain?.
Fleeing to Egypt was documented, but the English vacation was not.
