Drum Circle

Yesterday I visited Kensington Market, where it has been a tradition that all Summer long, the streets are closed off to automobile traffic on Sundays (only). Shame the powers that be couldn't see fit to keep the cars away every day, all year round. If you've ever driven through the warren of narrow streets in Kensington Market, I'm sure you've wondered why you even bothered.
Anyway, there were all kinds of events, demonstrations and street performers out in fine form, such as this drum circle pictured above. Anyone who could keep a beat (and a few who couldn't) were invited to borrow a drum and participate. I think this looks like a really fun way to let off a little steam.

Looks like a fun way to perhaps "beat" the heat on a summer day.
