What is more fun on a sunny day than to come across a street performer who soon has the crowd laughing, and eager to join in his madcap activities?
This young lass apparently couldn’t believe what she saw the clown doing.
Gettin’ down and dirty (literally) to capture this moment.
Selfie with equine friend.
And, the fashion statement du jour!
I live in New York City. A great walking city. Appreciated your post, writing, and pics.

Except for three years in Miami, yes I have. Miami is quite the opposite. Very few waling areas. But New York with street fairs and little artist shows can be so entertaining.

It’s fun to watch a clever street performer. Some of them are so professional. We saw two men performing at the Mindil Beach Markets in Darwin and they were fantastic.
Maybe we should all have a pair of lovely floral socks.

Isn’t it nice to see adults, in response to street performers, cast away their inhibitions and regain their childlike selves for a while?

Yes, everybody relaxes. It’s so much fun.

I think I take issue with the abuse of the word fashion. When I worked in Düsseldorf we had a manager called Udo. He used to wear white socks. One day the CEO visited. He was British. Ex military. He looked at Udo’s socks and declared them ‘beachwear’ and ordered him home to change. Quite right too.

I guess floral socks (or pantihose, in the case of a woman) wouldn’t have been acceptable either, Andrew.

Perhaps a problem of ajustement of the sandals l .Look at the big toes . We have the impression of a lack of place for them ( for a part )

Hello, Michel. I think the lady has a bunion on her right foot. Those are very painful, I hope her sandals give her some relief.

Actually, Becky has beaten her to it. Last Christmas she gave me a pair of white socks with a sandal design on them. They look just like real sandals

Do you REALLY have socks like that? Do you wear them with sandals? Were you in Florence this April?

I have some conservative one-color socks…but most of my socks are wild colors and crazy designs! I do NOT wear socks with sandals and I was not in Florence in April.
I once found a package of socks on sale…24 little footie type socks and NONE of them matched! And they were all crazy colors and wild designs and I thought, “Wow! Socks that were meant for me!” 😀
HUGS!!! 🙂

If you are going to wear socks with sandals that is the way to do it. And they go so well together.
