Thought we were going to drive to Wine Country today but woke up to gray skies threatening rain. Opted to explore downtown Menlo Park instead. Found and patronized a coffee shop, a yarn shop, a fabric store, and a book store. Once we had reached our limit of dodging raindrops we settled in at Lou’s for an evening of cards, reading, and knitting.
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.
