I did not expect to stumble across a 16m high giant rubber duck on my travels but today, while walking along the sunny Hong Kong waterfront, I did just that.
The duck started it's world tour back in 2007 and has since visited many cities including Amsterdam, Sydney and Sao Paolo. It has spent the past month in Hong Kong and it's creator, Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman, has said he created it to bring people together. Judging by the crowds it is still drawing after a month I would say it has done just that!
Did You Know?: In mid-May a malfunction caused the duck to deflate entirely!
