We found a spot for tonight! Moss Park southeast of Orlando International. In our first half hour here we had a Sandhill Crane and a White-tailed Deer meander past our campsite. Later while we were munching on chips both came quite near hoping for handouts. Overhead we could watch planes in out of the airport and large flights of birds. Tomorrow we’ll move to Manatee Hammock near Titusville for two nights. Hoping for some beach time!
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.
