Giant Duck!

I finally got to see the giant duck in the harbour as part of Sydney Festival! 

To be 100% honest I was a little underwhelmed - OK so it's completely and utterly adorable and I'm a sucker for cute things but with all the hype and all the things I heard friends say I had just expected it to be...bigger! Everyone tells me I'm silly to say that because yes, it's pretty massive, but I thought it would be sooo tall!

Anyway..first for the bad pic to give a sense of how big it is:

I went on a grey cloudy day which actually made for great photo taking!

Oh look its a ducky reflection...

Quack quack, anyone?

    1. It was only around for such a time so a lot of my friends also missed it! Lots of other things to see instead which are better I think :)

  3. I think I was underwhelmed by it too - but I had seen this duck before (or at least, I think I had when I was in Brisbane). Also, it helped that I was just passing by when I saw it - so I didn't go out of my way to check it out! Quack!

    1. Quite possible that you saw it in Brisbane - it was in Auckland 4 years ago apparently!
