This morning in Santa Fe we wakened to snow patched on the ground, snow flurries in the air, and black skies to the north. So of course we headed south – to Carlsbad Caverns National Park, near the town of Carlsbad, New Mexico in the southeastern corner of the state. We arrived at the Caverns in time to do a quick self guided tour of The Big Room. It’s incredibly massive with unbelievable geologic formations everywhere. It’s one of those places the camera just cannot even begin to capture the wonder. We can only say “Wow!”
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.
