People Watching

My parents were in town last week. They like to visit new places when they come to Colorado, so this time we took them to Boulder. If you're into people watching this is the place for you! There was some sort of Green Event going on that particular day. It lead people to get outside and dance with swords in crazy attire.

As we headed to Pearl Street we saw this gentleman. He wanted to place his extra large oragami elk next to this elk statue. Look? What a replica.

Then we stuck around to watch this street performer. Can you juggle 5 balls at once?

For his next act he juggled fire.

While we watched this guy and his tricks this bar bike rode by. Now that's the way to travel, don't you think? Beer on tap while someone else is driving you around. Party!

Now back to this crazy street performer. He found this gal in the crowd and asked her to light his pants on fire.

He then proceeded to juggle fire while standing on a piece of wood that was on top of a cylinder. Don't try this at home people. You should be a professional street performer. The guy survived and we went on our way.

Pearl Street is full off fun little shops. Along the street are random people that play music and street vendors. Drums anyone?

I think you can figure out what this guy does.

Everyone was getting hungry, so we stopped for hot dogs.

Eating hotdogs and people watching in Boulder is quite an activity.

Where's my hotdog mom?

Like I said, people watching in Boulder is quite entertaining. That guy with the red Converse actually has suspenders on to hold up his shorts. It's the in thing right now along with tattoos and facial piercings. Only in Boulder. . .

Porky, here, ate more of her hotdog than her older sister.

We couldn't visit Boulder and not look for a few caches.

This was a bit more difficult than some other ones that we have found. We weren't too successful this time around.

The children gave up quickly and decided to head for the playground.

I would too!
