Tonight was one of the reasons why we carry our black and white dance shoes in our T@B. Jane introduced us to the Tuesday night Swing Dance at The Champlain Club in Burlington. We loved the vibe. Michael played a nice selection of eminently danceable tunes. A beautiful dance floor illuminated by hundreds of tiny white lights served as the backdrop for a great evening with new dance friends. A wonderful reminder that dance is good for the soul!
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.
Thought of you both Sunday night, we were at a Florida Orchestra concert and the first part was swing music!
