It’s Adrian, Texas, the geo-mathematical midpoint on the historic Route 66 trip from Chicago to LA. We got off the interstate to get gas and to find a geocache behind the Sunflower Station, whose owner inspired the character of Flo in Pixar’s Cars. Unfortunately the shop was closed but we did get to eat some Whiskey Choco Pecan Pie ala Mode at the Midpoint Cafe! 
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.
