Feelin Da Fringe
It’s just about time to say goodbye to the awesome city of Edinburgh. We thought today we would take it easy and just roam the streets checking out the street performers. On just bout every block there were acrobats, musicians, artists, jugglers, and vendors selling their wares. One of the standout acts that had me mesmerized was Juzzie Smith who is a one-man-band from Australia. He had a crowd of about 90+ people all watching in awe as he played harmonica, an electric guitar, a stomp box, a tambourine, a maraca, and a didgeridoo all the while singing. If you ever have the chance to see him perform, run, don’t walk! I even shelled out £10 for his CD it was that amazing.
After Juzzie blew my mind we found these adorable little Asian girls…
…promoting a show called Taekwon vs. B-Boy. Sounded interesting and we had a 2 for 1 coupon, so we went down to venue 112 to check it out and were pleasantly surprised by the performance. The dancing and martial arts worked very well together on stage with a lot of cross over. It even had it’s own love story sub-plot which was quite funny.
After the show we took a quick photo with the crews…
…and then headed back to Linda’s house for a farewell drink with the flatmates.
A special thanks to Linda for making our stay in Edinburgh so enjoyable. We’ll never forget it!
