Day 79 - Street Entertainment

This little girl with the purple balloon and rolling butterfly made me smile, a few years ago. I spotted her when Don and I were enjoying a Chilean wine festival with our nephew. We suddenly heard the sound of cymbals and drums.  A crowd began to surround a father and son duo, stomping and twirling in the square, while their attached drums and cymbals pounded and crashed along. The crowds watched and applauded. The little girl was oblivious to the performance, or the nearby parrot... or twirling pinwheels.  She had her hands full!

Surprising performances: A young yodeler, echoing across Barton Springs Pool in Austin, TX... "Shaky Jake" playing his nearly busted guitar on the corner in Ann Arbor, MI... A spooky silver-painted, human statue in Paris, Sweetest ever clown in Barcelona, with a red nose that lit up when money dropped in his pail... and way too many to performers to name, in New Orleans...
