THE CBD looked like an American tourist’s dream this week with a score of kangaroos populating Central Park and the Enex 100 building.

Turns out the 20 fibreglass roos being painted was a publicity stunt by the owners of Miami Bakehouse, Simone Sanders and David Palmer, who plan to install the finished pieces along Forrest Highway at their new Myalup branch.

Cricketer Mitch Johnson, reality TV contestants Matt Di Costa and Kim Owen from the Block and artists like Wendy Binks, Mel McVee and Tankateo were amongst those invited to add some glam to the pieces.

The roos will be in place for viewing till the end of the week: after that you’ll have to visit Myalup.
