How's this for a beard! This lovely man was playing the accordion in Beausoleil yesterday and was happy to let me take his photo. Carlo is a member of the Scottish Dance Group of Monaco. He lives in Menton.
My children and I have given him many a coin over the years on that corner. What I like about him is that you can tell he sincerely loves to play and is not necessarily there to get some coins. (In my opinion anyway.)
I"m laughing thinking about the accordion player in Paris that was not pleased with me when I took his photo but had no coins for him. I'd asked Mary to put some in which she did, but he was upset with me anyway! C'es t la vie

I can't decide which I like better - the color or the B & W. Of course, the composition is amazing no matter the treatment.
I knew you have more courage than me! (My photo was taken from far away! I wonder which photo comes next!) ;-)

So tht what Santa does for the other 364 days in the year

Lisa, I agree. I went to give some money and he said 'if you want' - of course, like you, I did. Such a nice man. Does he play there every day?

Jilly, I am not sure if everyday but I see him very often, always on that same corner.
