The Bendigo Bunny

Meet the Bendigo Bunny, a rather large rabbit at over 6ft tall from memory. I remember thinking he would be fun to climb, but wearing heels that day meant I didn't climb the bunny and perhaps that was a better decision anyhow. The Bendigo Bunny sits behind the Bendigo Art Gallery, a very impressive art gallery and worth the 2 hour trip on a train from Melbourne. Behind and to the left of where I took this photo is a tall climbing tower, many steps up, a look out over the town of many churches. For a small country town, Bendigo has a high number of churches, old and large. One intersection has a church on each corner, including the Catholic Cathedral. There is a lot of history in this town, and that is one of the things that make the Bendigo Art Gallery so special, it is a very modern place to be, almost surreal and simply wonderful at the same time. If you get the chance, I recommend a visit, then tea and scones in an old coffee lounge close by, just to mix it up a little. But whatever you choose to do, remember the Bendigo Bunny would love you to say hi.
