Gotta appreciate the gallows humor of this sign just as you enter the Catacombs beneath the streets of Paris.
See You in Hell
Stained Glass WWII Paratrooper
Not exactly a sign but I couldn't help but admire this gorgeous stained glass tribute to the bravery of WWII paratroopers in Angoville au Plain (Normandy), France.
William the Conqueror Road
Spotted in Caen, France near the church with his grave.
Adequate Accessories
Spotted this in Bayeux, Normandy (lots of great signs there, btw). Gotta love the modesty of this sign - not "fabulous" or "great" or even "good" accessories and jewelry - just adequate. You know, for times that you need something that meets the low bar of being acceptable to go with your outfit.
No wolves, smokes, or ice cream
Spotted on the door to the cathedral in Bayeux, France. There are a gazillion ice cream shops in Bayeux and at the time, I wondered if this sign was meant to expressly forbid ice cream, or if ice cream was meant to represent all foods. It remains an unsolved mystery.
D-Day Anniversary in the Land of Liberty
We visited the Normandy region in France and these banners and signs were displayed all over in Bayeux. Nice to see that they still celebrate the anniversary of D-Day - it's a pretty big deal in the Terre de Liberté (Land of Liberty).
Utah Beach
Marker in the dunes at Utah Beach, Normandy.
No Hamburger, Yes Crêpe
Now here's a bumper sticker I could get behind: no to hamburgers, yes to crepes with butter. I mean, hamburgers are great, don't get me wrong. But crepes are awesome! Our French tour guide agreed. Spotted this on a car in the parking lot at Mont St. Michel in Normandy, France.
Love and Violence
We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practiced in broad daylight. Spotted this stenciled on the front of a house while walking around Bayeux.
