Phot-o' the Day: Busker with Accordion and Chihuahua; Lisbon, Portugal


The photo of the day is from outside the Torre de Belém, in the Belém neighborhood at the western edge of the city of Lisbon, Portugal.  From September 2017.

On that trip to Lisbon, I saw multiple people -- three constituting "multiple" -- busking in the city with (a) an accordion and (b) a chihuahua.  Never a shih-tzu.  Never a Doberman.  Always a chihuahua.  Apparently, in Portuguese culture, the squeezebox and the chihuahua go together like bourbon and ginger ale.  Or, to give it a more Portuguese spin, octopus and fado.  Or pasteis de Belém and life itself.
