On busy Mexico City avenues it is not unusual to see performers come out into the street while traffic is stopped at a red light. Before the light turns green they go around for tips from the waiting motorists. Thank goodness it's been a long time since I have seen fire breathers doing their hazardous act. Now it is jugglers who are most commonly seen on the streets. As I was walking along Insurgentes Avenue I saw this juggler who was particularly good.
I wanted to give him a tip, but when the light turned green he went over to the other side of the street. I waited for the light to turn red again. I crossed the avenue as he headed out to perform again, and I gave him a ten peso coin.
