Certainly there are lots of things in life that money won’t buy, but have you ever tried to buy them without money?

oh these are great ! Everyone having fun, from the whimsy of the artists’ installations to the peoples’ interactions. And of course, the cats. Love the ‘Put a Ring on It’ tone… oh-oh, oh oh oh

Now I think the seated cellphone-holding statue is one of those ‘living statues’ where they’re all silver and remain frozen in a pose. His face looks too real and the position of his hand seems oddly tailored to the cellphone. Still, a fun thing to see – and hard to pull off convincingly !

These are great, BoB. Especially cute is the child trying to help the rabbit statue.
Many clever ideas, too.
