The Walkers Club and More

Family

We have come to refer to our group that strikes out on our own in port as “The Walkers Club”. The participants vary from port to port. The fewest ever was three in Belize City last year when the two of us and friend Ed discovered the National Museum of Belize on a back street. Today we were joined by several old and new members of the club for a record number of eighteen walkers. After thoroughly investigating this “Smithsonian of Belize” (no photos, please) four returned by taxi and the rest of us wandered our way through the streets of Belize back to our ship for the evening’s festivities and fun. After seeing CJ and a temporary dance partner win a bottle of champagne for participating in the evening’s show, we retired to our cabin to watch Karen’s alma mater become National Football Champions! Go Gators!

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.

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.

Caligula at Strawberry Hill

Caligula at Strawberry Hill

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
