Hi Gail
It's taken a long time to answer your post. I've been to Avebury twice, once when I was a teenager along with my grandparents and parents, when we had tea and scones in a local teashop near the Neolithic circle, and more recently with my wife Donna. In a lot of ways I find Avebury more natural and authentic than Stonehenge. Although Stonehenge gets all the attention, it's a notorious tourist trap and has lost its magic for that reason. Avebury still has that mystique because it is not touristy, and you can walk among the stones alone, contemplating the enigma of the stone circle.
Best regards
Chris
