Book bench sculpture trail, post 2!!

A few days ago, we went for a walk along the seafront to find another book bench.

We went past the Hove Plinth.

Oh there it is....!

This one's pretty!

The pages ends are red, on this one!

Ooo!

That's the back - there's a cat hiding there!

And that's the other end!

Then today we had to go into town so we thought we'd find some more!

This one has a mouse on it!!!  (besides me!!!)

I like this one!

It has a fox sleeping underneath!

Hedgerow haven?  That explains the fox!!

Ooooo!!  Pretty!

I like that one!!

Down near the library we saw this one!

That's a bit fancy!

The star of my own story?  Well of course!!

People were leaning against the back of this one so we couldn't photograph all of it....

And that's the other end!

Then we walked down to the Pavillion Gardens and found this one!

It commemorates our local football team, Brighton and Hove Albion.

it's old.

And their logo is the seagull.  But it does have blue and white stripes like me, so can't be all that bad...!

That's the other end.  Then we had to wander around a bit to find the other one in the Pavillion Gardens.

BUT WE FOUND IT!!!!!  It's a seawagon!!!
Isn't that brilliant?!?!?!?!

I know somebody that's going to love this one!!

That's the info...

Oh wow!!!!

And that's the other end!

And there's the Royal Pavillion!

Ooo they got a special dragon counting event on!
That was a fun little jaunt!!!

A book bench sculpture trail!!!

After Andrea did the food shopping this morning, she said we were going on a mini expedition!!!

And the first stop was Hove Museum and Art gallery...... oh hang on, what's that??!

We've got a Book Bench sculpture trail!!!

We haven't done one of these for AGES!!!

A Seat For Friends, this one is.

It's rather fancy isn't it?!!?

Bit of a giggle!

Then we had to walk along to George Street - there was a couple of people sitting on this one but we asked them politely to bugger off so we could get pictures.  They didn't seem to mind...... much......

We forgot to take a picture of the info bit for this one....

But it's rather fun though!!!

Very rainbow-y!

They we went along to Hove Town Hall..... I love this one!!!!

It's got a Mouse on it!!!!  I think that's Navy Mouse.....

The Sussex Sidhe at Shadowhall...... hmm.

Oh hang on, there's a little notice down there....

It's got an alligator on it!!!

Oh what fun!!!  There's even dinosaurs on it!!

And a Fox and a squirrel!!!!!

Isn't that fab?!?!  I love this one!

Then we walked along to First Avenue.... oh I think I know this one!!!

It's Alice in Wonderland!!!

Oh this is fun!

Here's the tea party!!

There's the other side..... apparently there's another bench inside the building that this one is outside of.

There it is!!

Oh it's a cartoon one!!

Shame we can't see the back of it though.....

We did a bit more shopping on the way home and spotted another mouse in another window!!
Apparently there's 32 of these, according to the map we printed off.  We'll have to hunt down the other ones now.....!!
