Amble Ramble of Two Looky-loos

By Jeanne Viviès & Geke Zaal

No. 7 – A carpet store called Mozaïek.

• A handsome guy with a huge textile bag. 
• A ‘denim on denim’ woman.
• A man and a woman. 
• On the street, a man on a bike does a 180-degree turn. 
• A guy at no. 9—a grocery store—stands calling in the door frame. 
• A woman. 
• A woman with a tompouce-patterned bag. 
• Two men at no. 9 start moving huge piles of cardboard fruit and vegetable boxes.
• A man.
• A white van.
• A small empty plastic plant pot falls down a balcony and rolled down the sun-blind of the store at no 9.
• A guy comes out on to the balcony at no. 7 and sits down on a chair, swings his legs on the red fence, and lights a cigarette.
• Three women cross the street.
• A car beeps while going backwards.
• A man on a longboard rides on the pavement on the opposite side of the street.
• A man puts trash in the trash bins in front of no. 9.
• A woman with a wheeled walker.
• A woman with a baby in a baby carrier.
• A woman with a stroller.
• Sound of glass being dropped in the glass trash. 
• A man with Gucci shoes and EarPods passes by, stands still in front of no. 7, takes something out of his wallet, and continues. 
• A man walks up to the tomatoes of no. 9, takes a look and walks away. 
• A man with a plastic bag filled with fruits.
• A couple. They stare into the carpet store and walk away.
• A man passes by, walks a few steps back, takes a look at the fruit stand, and continues.
• The woman with the trolley case from the cafe.
• A man. 
• A scooter. 
• A red bike. 
• More bikes. 
• A couple. 
• Two small laughing kids are running. Their parents with strollers follow. 
• Chatting continues. 
•  A man with a beer and a man with a ciggy.
