Costa Rica 2012 The Yellow Signs









We have loved the signs of Costa Rica. Some of them easy to understand. And others...well you'll see.  Cow Crossing

School Crossing. And without a military they have sunk all their funds into education. There are schools everywhere.


Horse and we're guessing rider crossing.

Lots of horse and riders

Starts getting fun. Monkey, Toucans and some kinda big cat.

Monkey's

Not so much. Lizard or something.

Monkey? Sloth? Saw them both.

Love this one. How many animals can you fit on one sign.

Aw, wear your seat belt.

This was not a joke. The grade was horrendous. In fact coming back up the hill we came around a turn just in time to see a bus headed down finish plowing across our lane and into the hillside. His brakes went out. We stopped as people got off crying to make sure they were ok. It wasn't until we drove away that we realized 10 seconds earlier and we would have been between the final stop of the bus and the hill. Yikes! Angels or not we thanked Jehovah a lot.

Falling rocks.

Sweet ride over that speed bump

Hey you. Yeah you in the fancier car. The speed bump applies to you too.

Round abouts.

This ironically was the last sign we saw on our trip. And yet it sums up our trip the best. End of Pavement.

    i feel like they could all be summed up in one sign that says: "BE CAREFUL OF EVERYTHING."
