Only a friend who had once lived and worked in Haiti would be thrilled to be your guest when there’s no place to sit down in your house and would choose to sleep on a sofa with no cushions! That’s our Blythe. There are so many facets to our friendship, one of which is that she is a weaver. So we made a trip to a weaver’s mecca, Earth Guild in Asheville. While we were there we attended Mass at the very beautiful St Lawrence Basilica and drove home via the Blue Ridge Parkway.
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.
