For this week's theme, I give you Mr. Yellow Buddy Bear from Berlin, Germany!
I checked out Wikipedia to learn the background behind these cute and colorful looking guys and I thought that the meaning and message that they represent are pretty cool.
The two concepts Buddy Bear and United Buddy Bears stand for two very different types of activity. The buddy Bears are an urban event, comparable to other events with a great diversity of animal sculptures that bring new life into many city centres. The United Buddy Bears, however, are primarily about their message - a message of peace, international understanding and tolerance among the nations, cultures and religions of this world.
Very cute and I love the message! Yellow is a happy color, and Buddy looks like a happy bear.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great Easter weekend!
Hi Annie, you are right, Yellow does seem to be a very happy color and Buddy does look pretty happy. :) I like the message behind Buddy Bear too.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend and Happy Easter!
What a wonderful message. Fun shot of the bear. Happy Weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat coincidence, Kathy... I actually have a photo for this week's that Berlin-related... though it actually was taken in Hong Kong (at a German restaurant called Berliner). No bears though! ;b
