Tipi Motto
In the background are the "posh camping" pre-pitched tipis, right next to the more "genuine" ones with smoke-stains and totem symbols. Nice sentiment on the banner.

The Magic Garden
The Magic Garden is a small space next to the Permaculture Garden. It has toys and signs which encourage you to play and talk to them. It's fun

The Wishing Tree
Here you can add your wish to the others on The Wishing Tree. It reminded me of the prayer plaques you fill in and hang at Japanese temples. It's interesting to read the wishes, some kind, some funny, some poignant.

Dressing up
After a visit to the cider bus, you can pick up some new togs from Oxfam. Their wedding dresses in for only 10 quid, ideal for the blushing bride, or groom!

Glastonbury from the air
These figures come to Glastonbury each year. You can make one yourself and add it to the legion. It reminds me of Anthony Gormley's field for the British Isles, which I hear is on show again at the moment.

Festival Food
With my first shift over, I headed for my first festival food. Tofu, fresh crispy veg and rice from Katie's Thai Kitchen. Very nice.

Flags at Night
The site has expanded, and there is a great view from above the Park area. Must in back for a daylight shot and to visit the nice cafe up there.
