Interesting Road Signs in Scotland *** an extra post

Some of these are very helpful, but I always find myself shaking my head and laughing at others every time we visit:
 
 
This one I am sure has saved my life a few times:
 
in a museum:

 

 
on a ferry:

 
Hidden Summit warning:

 
This is a great one:



Sheep!
 
Help!

 
Oncoming vehicles in middle of the road--I had to stop and think about this one the first time I saw it--well, tell them to get OUT the middle of the road:

 
bumps?

 
oh no!

 
nice signs:


 
Heavy Plant Crossing--I had to ask Colin about this one--PLANT over here means equipment, like construction equipment:



Guess it means roundabout, which for me should also have a huge exclamation point!!!:


pedestrian crossing:

saw this sign and within 100 yards there actually WAS a cow standing in the road that I had to ask to please move along:
 
Hidden Dip sounds funny:


 
At our ibis hotel in Edinburgh, this sign looked so strange to me.  It looked like he was dancing down the stairs!  I guess it means this is the way to go in an emergency?

 
Way out--cool:

 
Red Squirrels are treated like royalty over here.  I love all creatures, but I guess red ones are rarer here?  They would have a fit over my totally white squirrels:




 
Ducklings crossing:


Last day of cruise and long trek home Wednesday, November 23

Nice place to wait to get off the ship:



Then waiting at Miami airport for flight to Atlanta then connect for flight to Asheville then rental car home, but all went well.  At Atlanta airport, we had a wonderful meal at Carrabba's, so big and nice that we decided not to do a Thanksgiving meal the next day.  It's good to be home!
