137.365

Some of you might recognize this: a dancing hare on top of the hill by the Ballantrae fountains in Dublin. I'd never been there so I decided to check it out. My kid isn't really into fountains or splash pads, so I packed a lunch and planned to escape to a nearby playground if needed. I'm glad I did because we didn't stay long. The kids, however, decided to climb the hill on our way out and check out the rabbit sculptures. I find them creepy. They're huge and sculpted roughly and you can see gears and mechanical parts in them. I don't know if the gears are sculpted or if actual machine parts are in there. I just don't understand the concept. If anyone knows and can explain it, I'd love to hear it. You can read about them here.
