This little man really touched my heart. He's probably 40 or so--a little short guy with flat eyes a body quick and sharp.
I heard his clap clapping to the music a block before I saw them. He dancing and slapping two seas shells to the drum beat of a happy song, his sister standing...watching fondly. She was coating his face with sun block when we walked up and her tenderness towards him drew me to them. I asked if I could take some pictures, Bob tossed in some coins, and I sat on a street side planter to catch the show.
There are a dozen street performers here every day--with drums, flutes, dancing puppets, tambourines, sometimes a whole band, but none of them reached into my heart like this sweet little man and his sister.
