The weather this afternoon has been perfect for shorts and sandals and a trip to the beach where we felt like the lyrics of Knee Deep, the Zac Brown song, “Only worry in the world is the tide gonna reach my chair.” Totally relaxing!
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.
How lovely! I do love the difference between the coastal areas, nice waves on the east coast, but you can walk out sometimes 1/4 of a mile on the west coast if the tide is right.

As long as there is sun, sand, surf, a a breeze, it’s a glorious beach day!
