For a bit of fun we started taking pics with a rubber duck when we went to different events. I thought I'd start a thread to keep all the pics in one place.

London 2012 Olympics...



London 2012 Olympics - Wheelchair Rugby...




Jamaica - September 2012...






Legoland...




Stone Henge - A pile of old rocks...




Center Parcs, Longleat - Everyone loves the rapids...




London Zoo - Penguin enclosure...



London Zoo - A random sleeping man, can you spot the duck?




The obligatory snow picture...

The network team where I used to work did this on all work trips.

They had a website somewhere, like a blog... wonder if it's still up.

Ok so I'm back from a trip to the states and I've got a few more duck pics. One thing I learnt is that I need to pack some blu-tac next time as there were a couple of shots which would have been better if the duck could have been held in position safely.

Statue of Liberty (I couldn't zoom in and get the duck in at the same time)...




High line park built on an old train track...




Pier 17 - tall ship with the skyline behind...




Brooklyn Bridge - The duck was nearly blown off the bridge onto the road below!...




Grand Central Station...




Central Park...




Yankee Stadium - Yankees v Red Sox...




Times Square...




Rocky Statue, Philadelphia...




Phillie cheese-steak sandwich. It gave me meat sweats...




Madison Square Gardens - Knicks v Bucks...




Citi Field - Mets v Marlins...




Met Life Stadium, New Jersey - Wrestlemania 29...

It's update time again. Following the mini-moon to Rome we went on our actual honeymoon to Borneo and Singapore.

The duck relaxing by the pool...




A view of one of the beaches looking back towards the hotel...




Looking out to sea...




If you look closely you can see a orang utan in the sactuary...




The second stop was Singapore where the main activity was the F1 Grand Prix...






Universal Studios was a great day out...




No trip to Singapore is complete without getting a Singapore Sling in the Long Bar at The Raffles Hotel...

How was the GP? Well organised I imagine?

Which cocktail is the sling?

The GP was great, more exciting than it probably appeared on the TV. It was really well organised considering how many people were there.

The Sling is the drink on the left.

We still have the original duck. Having said that I do have my eye out for a spare one just incase we lost the original one on a flight or something!

I saw the England one online and thought it would be something a bit different as it was the World Cup.

The yellow one will be making a return.
