Yet another wonderful day. Ketchican. It’s a tiny village perched at the base on mountains right at water’s edge. It’s accessible only by water or air and is one of the obligatory ports of call for cruise ships. Since we did not have a shore excursion booked and access to the town was by tender, we opted to relax in the thallasemia pool first then visited the town after lunch. We wandered the historic town and marveled at the totem poles. We were all back on board by evening. We took a break from dancing in Michael’s Club to see the fabulous creations by the Celebrity Chefs at the Midnight Buffet.
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.
