Back in early 2002 we took American History I at the University of South Florida campus In St. Petersburg with Lee Irby. Among the things we talked about was The Great Awakening and the clergyman Jonathan Edwards. It was because of those classroom discussions that we made a point of visiting this site of one of Edwards’ most famous sermons here in Enfield. Certainly the fact that there is a geocache here has nothing to do with it!
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.
