Sure, Santa Claus will come in time for Christmas, and hopefully leave us some of his magic besides this year’s presents! However, we are not talking of old Father Christmas here, but of another world famous character who also appears invariably dressed in a red and white top! What’s more, he always wears a bobble hat (that is a knit cap with a pom-pom), do you already know who we are talking about? Yes, the great traveller in a stripey sweater and jeans called Wally!! He is visiting The Whampoa malls in Hong Kong right now, as you will certainly appreciate in the pictures we have included below!
Where’s Wally (Waldo in the USA) is probably one of the most popular book series of all time, created by British illustrator Martin Handford in 1986. The series experienced great success with almost 40 international editions, and later inspired TV cartoons, a comic strip and even video games! Now Wally is spreading the love around Hong Kong during this Christmas season, armed with his magic walking stick, and he is bringing his girlfriend Wenda and her pet dog Woof with him! The romantic installation found in Whampoa is aptly named “True Love Will Find You”, and invites everyone to take some lovely pictures! Check out some of the images we took there, you will see kawaii hearts everywhere, among zillions of red stripes 🙂 Welcome to Hong Kong, Wally, Wenda and Woof!
