A Morning on the Riviera

Family

Yesterday we ventured out to go kayaking at Weedon Island Preserve but discovered the parking lot full and the sky threatening so we contented ourselves with exploring the visitor’s center and learning more about the history of the area. The body of water west of the visitor’s center is named Riviera Bay because a developer in the 1920’s had a vision of developing Weedon Island as Florida’s Riviera…
Today we did succeed in spending the morning kayaking on the Riviera. We put in near the visitor’s center and paddled to the fishing pier, also known as the northern end of the old wooden bridge that some of us remember from our childhood rambles on our bicycles.

Burgh House Hampstead

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.

Wicked The Musical

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.
