Personally, when I go walk around to take shots, I'm listening to music or a podcast while I'm walking around, and don't really hear what's going on. Not that I have any issues interacting with people, but when I'm taking shots with strangers around I'm not really looking to strike up a conversation.
Not only that, but during a portrait session, you have to give direction, which is easier said that done. It's all nice and good to say, smile, and start snapping, but it's better to joke around and try to get a natural reaction, and everything about the frame and subject's position has to be considered. It's a different experience for me, and I'll welcome it again if it happens.
Here's what we shot today, direction or no direction.

I had a friend visiting this weekend and we ended up goofing off with my cameras. This is one of the better shots we ended up with, along with a bit of editing. It was a fun time.
I'm looking forward to the next few days.
