Well, we’re back and we’re pleased to say we successfully survived our first ever trip to Glastonbury Festival! We had a great time and it was nice to have a weekend off work, for once!
The line-up although definitely not as strong as previous years, was still extremely entertaining.
Most of all, we were very lucky with the weather. However, arriving Friday morning in heavy rain wasn’t the best start! We were thankfully prepared for the elements in waterproofs and wellies. The same can’t be said for everyone though… Take a look at my photo from outside Millets by the Pyramid Stage!

I thought this was pretty iconic of the day – the fields soon became muddy and those who were wearing shoes were really struggling to walk around! It also seemed quite sad to see so many abandoned shoes, just dumped and left in the mud – I really hope they were recycled or given to a charity shop (after they had been cleaned that is!).
It was shocking to see how much waste there was at Glastonbury though. I suppose with 300,000 people (or more?) there will be some litter but the fields were covered. Thankfully, the festival had hundreds of charity volunteers who picked litter everyday.
The sun shone for the rest of the weekend though, hurray, which hopefully meant no more abandoned shoes!
All in all, we had a great time and will be sure to be going back again!
