CJ and Phil suggested we rendezvous at the Fountain Square Mall in downtown Bloomington. After an initial round of hugs we headed to The Irish Lion, a restored 1882 tavern where we visited over a round of libations and a couple of small plates before moving on to BluBoy for desserts and decaf coffees and teas. They have lived here now for about fourteen months and really seem to relish all that Bloomington has to offer.
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.
You both look wonderful!!!
