Breakfast in the Preserve

Florida, Road Trip, States

A propane campfire, a mug of perked coffee, and a bowl of sausage scramble. It’s a most salubrious outdoor breakfast. The weather doesn’t quite qualify as warm, but it’s not driving us inside the T@B for shelter either. It’s the first time this trip that we’ve felt comfortable lingering out of doors. Later this morning we’ll do some exploring of the Payne’s Prairie and Micanopy area. It’s just south of Gainesville and just east of I-75 that we have traveled past so many times but have explored so little. Perhaps there are geocaches to be found. And Yelp! advises us there is excellent Southern BBQ to savor.

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.

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.
