It’s now a well established tradition for us. Once a year, usually in January, we travel with a group of friends on a Caribbean cruise. We are mostly swing dancers and spend several days together exploring the ship and the various ports as well as finding as many opportunities as possible to dance together. This year we sailed out of Tampa at sunset on the Carnival Legend. An extra treat this year was that newly graduated CJ was able to come with us a a guest of cousin Oscar.
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.
