Fill my eyes with that yellow vision
Last Saturday we made a spontaneous decision to visit the Giant Rubber Duck in Kaohsiung City during its final weekend down south. Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman has been spreading joy around the world since 2007 with his massive floating duck sculptures. The duck has already left Kaohsiung and will be making stops in Taoyuan [Oct. 26 – Nov. 10] and Keelung [Dec. 21 – Jan 31].

I was there too early this month. Huge little rubber duckling. LOL!!
It totally changes your perspective. While taking the first shot of this post I kept thinking that everybody looked tiny, not that the duck looked huge.
I m there before !!!
I’m glad we saw it in Kaohsiung on such a beautiful day. I’m sure it looks better in a harbor than in a lake (like in its next stop, Taoyuan).
Cool – but I think it is different ducks in different countries, I read somewhere that the Taiwan one is bigger than the one they had in Hong Kong?
I heard on a radio interview that each one is produced in the country that it will be on display in. The Taiwan duck measures (25×18×18 meters) while the Hong Kong duck measures (14×15×16.5 meters). The largest one was the one on display in France in 2007, which measured (26×20×32 meters).
I’m sure the kids enjoyed the giant duck. Looks like great weather at the time. Not sure how something would go over with people…
Our organization dumps lots of smaller rubber duckies down a manmade pond…it’s a fundraiser for guessing the numbers..
We lucked out on the weather Jean. A city near my hometown does a similar event as the one you describe but the ducks are dumped off a bridge and they “race” down a river.

We have this not once but twice, one in Sydney and a smaller one in Canberra!
The duck sure gets around!
