Dublin Street Entertainment

 

Some of the more entertaining sights from the bustling city. I will add to these pictures as I take more of them on my trots around Dublin.

flame.jpg (51091 bytes) This sort of street activity is becoming more common in Dublin (this was Grafton Street) as the number of visitors to Ireland increases.

1manband.jpg (52199 bytes) This one man band is amazing. He plays around Dublin quite regularly and draws huge crowds in the streets, often blocking the whole width of Grafton Street. There is a short video clip on my Videopage.
