Boulder, Colorado, is an interesting city to visit. An unusual combination of outdoor life, university town and lingering hippie culture. One of the “must see” spots in the town is Pearl Street, a great pedestrian mall dotted with fine restaurants and shops. Pearl Street is an extremely popular and busy place, especially evenings and on weekends.
As you might expect in a place filled with people, it’s a magnet to buskers and street entertainers of all types. Here’s a few we saw during a walk down Pearl Street this past week:
A man standing on a moving platform, while juggling a bowling ball, a hatchet and a pair of dirty socks……
A fellow playing the piano, not missing a note, while suspended upside-down….
Another juggler and polished entertainer…..
A musician strumming a guitar while standing on a cello…..
Kids having their faces painted….
A fellow waiting to tell your future with his deck of cards…..
And an artist who spent hours creating a mural made of leaves and blossoms applied by hand, without any adhesive, to a moist rock…..
A most interesting assortment of humanity.
