Hong Kong Harlequins: Tramps Like Us

"A day without laughter is a day wasted" - Charlie Chaplin
"Harlequin" sounds a little less krusty than "clown" and a little more dignified than "buffoon." Known as "Arlecchino" in Italian, its origins are believed to reside in the "Zanni" figure found in Commedia dell'arte...

Yuko and I got all made up for a fun day of tramping around Sheung Wan on Hong Kong Island....

We braved the elements and slapped on our best trickster-faces...

Thanks to our friend & photographer, Turbo, for indulging two silly tramps...
