The other day in Javi's party I found another person who had a few interesting signs from Brazil so I couldn't resist and we did the compulsory swap over the internet and I thougth there may be some more crazy people out there who likes to "collect" (and by collect I mean to take a picture of it) interesting signs from around the world.
So if you are into that this is your post, if you are not...just skip this one and move on...

Australia
Animal Road Signs, my favorite in Australia, they have the weirdest animals down there
The following two you can only find them in Tasmania since they are the only places in the world where you can find these two animals, the platipus and the Tasmanian Devil
The following two, with the penguins I found them in Kangaroo Island. The first one is what one of the locals described as a burocratic error since they never had Emperor penguins in the island, they only have the kind of the second sign and only in the winter.
There are a lot of birds signs on the West coast not sure whether it is because they have lots of birds on that side of the country or whether they have way to few and the signs are to keep the few they have. Certainly on the road you don´t get to see many.
The following road sign I found near Alice Springs. One thing is for sure, I've never seen such a huge Kangaroo!
The next one, I found it up North on a beach in Cape Tribulation. You wouldn't wanna have a swim on that beach...
Not all the signs are on the road and not only the animals are dangerous in Ausralia...even the plants can give you trouble down there.
The famous Bondi beach in Sydney, if you pay close attention to the sign you'll notice it's not the most friendly beach around.
How about this Cable beach in Broome
The one in Darwin was worse though...on top of all that it also had sharks and crocodiles...yes...salted water crocodiles...
Kakadu and Litchfield were littered with signs like below, they were everywhere...mind you, they don't tell you not to swim in the water, they only tell you to be careful when you do...no wonder every now and then you can read in the newspapers about a tourist eaten alive by a crocodile in Australia...
This is a different one though...
And then they also have some signs you are not sure whether they are black humor or they are for real. Check this out!
Brazil
From this lines I'd like to thank Candido González for his Brazilian signs. Really cool!
Cyprus
On the path to Aphrodite's bath
Jordan
At the Death Sea
New Zealand
I found the below sign on the road from Whangarai to Tutukaka
And this one in Cathedral Cove Beach
Travelling from Westport to Lake Mahinapua
Singapore
In the Hotel lobby
Just in case it wasn't clear, you are not supposed to spit on the hotel lobby??? what the???
Would you take this lift? I took the stairs just in case.
Spain
Care for a driving experience by the edge of the road? ;-)
Sweden
I found this sign in Stockholm, in fact the place was full of them. It seems in the winter with the cold conditions there is a lot of ice forming on the roofs and pipes coming from the roof and at some point, this ice falls to the street with the potential to kill any pedestrian passing by.
Thailand
Not the best translation around
You've got to love Thailand...just in case it wasn't clear, massage does not always means sex but there is a sign to indicate it when is not.
And this is the best sign I've ever found so far!!
Just Funny
Found in Brazil
Found in Thailand
Está muy bien poner señales originales de otros países. Pero para que no se diga en Santa Cruz (Oleiros-Coruña) hay un paso de cebra para patos. Creo que la debes de poner en tu colección
ReplyDelete?Y Cuándo díces que me vas a pasar esa foto? :-)
ReplyDeletePfff, en Coruña tenía que ser...
ReplyDeleteAunque me imagino que ya lo tienes en mente, pero por si se te había olvidado. Espero que añadas las señales de New Zeland, jejje
ReplyDeleteHe visto que tienen alguna... no muchas pero alguna, sí...veremos lo que podemos hacer :-)
