I Agree Tijj,

I always get really excited when going to somewhere for the first time and especially great when i find somewhere when i wasn't expecting to. There is a real rush in the place becoming visible too, especially if its after a long walk and then you find the circle, and catch that first glimpse.

Different things excite me. The biggest WOW was Skara Brae - so personal and with no mumbo-jumbo. You could say with absolute certainty that someone stood 'here', or went to sleep 'here... amazing.
But the excitement of finding a smaller site hidden in forest gets me every time. Assycombe is still very high on my list for exactly that reason.
