It turned out to be a bright and beautiful Sunday. Much of the snow had melted. Elaine fed us a delicious breakfast and we lingered at the table as we visited with the other guests. Then we went for a hike accompanied by Cinnamon and Molly. They were perfect canine hostesses and tour guides. One led the group, the other brought up the rear. We said our good byes to Elaine and the dogs and enjoyed a leisurely drive back to El Dorado stopping for lunch at the No Pity Cafe in Madrid.
 
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.
