It made a much better picture!

There's no telling who's taking photographs without your consent...you could get back to work the next week and be the laughingstock of your whole office :) Hysterical - and a great reminder that even on vacation, you need to be careful what you do.

People do this everywhere with naked statues. In Rome, I saw a girl pretending to be cupping the scrotums (scrota?) of the two big dudes on steps of the Campidoglio. In Pompeii, I saw a lady giggling about rubbing Apollo's bum for a picture. Tourists... Was it a perimeter with huge parameters?
