We ventured out on a walking adventure to downtown Mountain View. We lingered over Tapas and Sangria at Cascal’s then wandered to the East West Bookstore where we scored a luscious filmy royal blue silk scarf. At Book Buyers we found two seasons of Indiana Jones on DVD. then back to Lou’s for hydration and a little more fermented fruit of the vine on a glorious blue sky day with a gentle breeze.
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.
Yum…Happy 4th!
