The season has begun. We began Christmas shopping and started with Steve getting a new camera for Karen and not waiting until Christmas to give it to her. In the evening we decorated our tiny fresh tree while video conferencing with Greg. It doesn’t take long to put eighteen ornaments on the tree! Riley’s Christmas crafts from last year are part of the decoration! And Steve’s 1940’s era American Flyer chugs around the tree!
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.
