No visit to Cincinnati, with the myriad of relatives that we have on both sides, is complete without a visit with Uncle Neil and Aunt Vi. We enjoyed a lunch with them at Bob Evans then a home baked dessert and coffee back at their apartment then regaled them with tales from the road and listened with interest to their family stories of then and now. Later in the day we managed to get some Graeter’s Ice Cream and in the evening enjoyed a Frisch’s meal with Cousin Mary and her friend.
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.
