Stonehenge & Windsor Castle, England

On our last day in London, we woke up bright and early, Drew took the tube while I slept in (Oh the joys of being sick on vacation) and picked up the rental car.
We rented a car through Sixt. It came with unlimited kilometers and it was our way to catch our early flight out of the airport the next morning.
According to Google Maps, Stonehenge is about an hour and 45 minutes away. An hour on the high way then 45 on little back roads. Stonehenge is in the middle of NO WHERE.
We spent maybe 45 minutes on the highway then the rest of the time on a little two lane road. All the tourist attractions outside of cities always seem to be in the middle of no where.
I had heard it was better to buy tickets in advance because of the tours of people that came, so I went on Stonehenge's website and bought tickets. I would suggest doing this because the lines were crazy when we got there!
