My sister is currently in Paris and she just reminded me of one of my favorite things about navigating in foreign countries: their signs. We are so used to our own road signs and directional signs in buildings that it is surprising that other people have had different ideas of how to show people around. The following are some of my favorites, feel free to add your own interpretations of what these signs mean:
-
- don’t feed the walrus
-
- why did the penguin cross the road?
-
- “no tromboning in the street”
-
- don’t lean on a friend
-
- don’t travel with giraffes
-
- hard to see but it looks like another don’t drink and drive version
-
- “dont play your flute into your phone”
-
- “don’t drink and drive”
-
- found on a wall in a school
-
- “dig for burried treasure”
-
- fans so strong they make men and women fly?
-
- bathroom? that little girl has to pee I think
