Unicorns and Fire-Breathing Dragons

I read last week that Fuengirola issued new licenses to 15 street performers. The following day, a fire-juggling two-some appeared on the Paseo. They must be licensed because they’re allowed to perform throughout the evening inches away from all the restaurants; amid the trees, awnings, and pedestrians. I took some photos during our last two visits to Sandpiper Restaurant. One guy is the juggler/acrobat and the other is clearly there to ensure safety — he’s also the muscle for one segment, as you’ll see in the second photo.

The Unicorn
I think I’m starting to forget my English, which is tragic since my Spanish doesn’t fill the gap. When the juggler pulled out this one-wheeled thingamabob, I told San Geraldo, “Look, he’s got a unicorn… Wait… That’s not right. Unicycle.” At least I can still tell when it’s not right.

PLAYING WITH FIRE… ON A UNICORN, THURSDAY NIGHT.
FRIDAY NIGHT. THE UNICORN (I THINK IT’S THE SAME ONE) AS SEEN FROM OUR TERRACE.

The Dragons
Speaking of fire (and extinct creatures), some of the sand sculptors along the beach have been having a good time creating dragons. A number actually breathe fire. Others don’t need to.

FIRE-BREATHING DRAGON.
NO FIRE, BUT I WOULDN’T MESS WITH HIM.
