A tale to tell

My busking session was again in Burnie, starting at 11am, and accompanied by my Dad and his tourist attracting, busking alpaca, Rico (no joke, our family are eccentric!).
Warmed by my usual large chai, one sugar, I began the performance energetically! and that energy remained for the two and a half hours that I play, 
as peoples comments, interest and appreciation was show throughout the duration. Giving me a high that lasted for the rest of the day.

I gained a couple of new items for my collection, Jetsam of the Donation Box (unusual items that have been donated)
One being a small bible, donated by a warm hearted religious zealous who, for the last 30 years has handed out pamphlets and preached in the streets of Burnie. He seemed as natural a feature as the oldest structure there. Perhaps not liked by everyone, but accepted as something that wont be changed any time soon.

Meeting such characters truly is a love of mine. Another little character I met today, won the honour of providing me with the comment of the day! and had me in giggles for a good couple of minutes afterwards.
Pretty enthused for another busking session in Launceston tomorrow morning! 
I hope the good luck and interesting encounters continue to take place.


Comment of the day
