The azaleas are in glorious bloom. It is wonderful yet bittersweet to wander among these bushes in our front yard. It is because we love the azaleas that we planted them here several years ago. Each year the bloom is more prolific than the last but most likely next year someone else will be enjoying this glorious azalea bloom as their own. For now we are enjoying it to the hilt and trying to chronicle all the blossoming glory on our little piece of property.
On the Hidden London Tour today we visited a number of curious places relating to the history of public transportation hidden in plain sight.
Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.
Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
