Okay- that last post was very energy-intensive, so it's time for a lighter one!
There are lots of signs in Europe, and most are just things you squint at trying to figure out where to go, but some make you do a double take. Here is my archive of signs worth all the funny looks I get for taking pictures of them.
 |
| A bar in Vienna, Austria. People are allowed to drink wine and beer at age 16, and everything else at 18. If you break the law, though... |
 |
| Dublin, Ireland. What on earth does this sign mean? To run under flying cars? To jump your car over running pedestrians? I find the spatial relationship of the icons open to all sorts of interpretations... |
 |
| Near my apartment in Santry, Dublin. Tell me- what do you think this means? To me, it seems to say I should poop on the footpath if my dog does... |
 |
| But upon further reading, that is not, in fact, the case... |
 |
| Dublin is a very pedestrian-friendly city. |
 |
| Cork, Ireland- where the signs are ambiguous and the people are clever. |
 |
| On the Metro in Rome. I think it's a series of informational signs about the characteristic Roman Metro dance moves... all to be done without touching the doors with your hands. When in Rome... |
 |
| The elevator in the Eiffel Tower. I am so grateful the pickpockets are red! Makes them much easier to spot. |
 |
| I have seen so much vegetarian propaganda that I forget where this is... somewhere in continental Europe. Anyway people, I DID. 3 years ago. So lay off. This isn't going to work on somebody out to get a burger, anyway. |
 |
| See what I mean? But at least the Romans show some enthusiasm! This could totally become a cheer for Team Vegan. I see the fans shouting in unison already... "carne equals morte, GOOOOOO vegan!" |
 |
Howth, Ireland. Thanks so much for informing me, because otherwise I would never have noticed the sudden drop into the ocean.
Hope you all enjoyed that! And remember, inspiration comes in the most unexpected places :-) |
