Hippopotame

A massive great hippopotamus suddenly appeared in Casino Square just before Christmas. It's a bronze by the artist Mornar and is on the Café de Paris side of the square. In fact, as you come up out of the underground parking - boom - there it is and pretty impressive too.

Very cool... Reminds me of the song, " I want a hippopotamus for Christmas..."

Do enormous hippos suddenly appear often there? Is it a tax exile?

Kate said...

Yes, it is huge and impressive. I can't seem to feel, tho, that it seems a bit out of place here!
