Surf Life Saver on Pillar at Brisbane International Airport
This is the full picture of the legs that were in last night's shot. http://365project.org/loey5150/365/2011-10-02
They have him hanging off a pillar.
He's life size too.
This is what it's all about. they are trying to get the message across to all visitors to Australia to swim between the flags, or risk drowning. The nippers, (young training surf life savers) have tried to get rid of the red & yellow cap as it is not "cool" to wear, but it is here to stay. If anyone is in trouble in the surf, all you have to do is look for one of these caps to get help. http://www.lifesaving.com.au/
I am not well at present, bad cough, sore sinus & feeling lousy in general. I caught a virus off a friend who I lunched with.
(I did not know she was sick until she turned up on the day - what do you do) ?
Early night tonight :(
Neat to see the whole thing! I can see why the younger surf life savers would want to get rid of the caps, but it seems they do serve their purpose. Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. Get better soon!
So sorry you're not feeling well either... Sounds like you were in a situation where it couldn't have been avoided.
