The mosaic on Cavil Mall, looking worse for wear these days, but still full of colourful reminders of our past.
How many have taken photos at the water fountain? With their own children in the picture?
This is a bit of a rarity, street art actually well placed.
Another firm favourite with the tourists and another source of many holiday snaps.

Now the first picture below is the one you will find on the Gold Coast Council site. A bit sad really, as this would have to be the most child friendly piece of art I know of.
