While dining at The Soup Company in Vik, Iceland, it was time for a potty break. I headed to the bathroom with my 7 year-old son Lucas and came across a bizarre sign.
I’ve seen other odd bathroom- related signs over the years but this one was very different. Continue reading Ridiculous Street Signs #26: For Drying Hands Only- Vik, Iceland
I love coming across funny signs both at home and while traveling around the world. Most of the time these signs aren’t meant to be funny, regardless, humor can be found in them.
From time to time, I post about funny signs which I call, Ridiculous Street Signs.
A few months back, I posted about an interesting traditional hat that I came across over the summer. While in Azerbaijan and Georgia, I searched for a traditional papakha hat!
This post led to an e-mail from a reader who wanted to contribute a sign he came across in a national park in Thailand. Continue reading Contributor Ridiculous Street Signs #14: Kung Fu Deer- Thailand
While on the way to a friend’s house in New Jersey, the Michael W Travels family decided to stop for lunch along the way.
Our food stop would be just past Staten Island, in Linden, NJ. The White Rose Diner is the kind of place where you feel like you’re stepping back in time. The most famous items on the menu are sliders and sandwiches made with Taylor Ham (a salty, porky NJ specialty). Continue reading Ridiculous Street Signs #25: Hot Dogs- Linden, New Jersey
It’s been a while since I last came across a bizarre or ridiculous street sign. I think the last time I spotted one was back in February. (From time to time, I also post signs contributed by friends and readers which can be a lot of fun!)

Whether it be at home or while traveling, I love coming across odd and strange signs. Over the years I’ve posted a collection of Ridiculous Street Signs.

During our spring break in 2015, Kim, Lucas and I headed to Myanmar (Burma), a destination I had long wanted to visit.

One of the things that I’m always on the look out for while traveling is something that I like to call Ridiculous Street Signs.
I’m sure many of you have seen a sign in a foreign country and laughed, wondered what it meant or even just shook you head and thought what?!
Some of these signs might not be so ridiculous to locals but to a foreigner they can cause a laugh and become the subject of a photo or two. Maybe they’re just lost in translation… Continue reading Contributor Ridiculous Street Signs #12: Potty Humor- Barbados
During our trip to the Mid- East Gulf States I was hoping to come across one or two ridiculous street signs.
Over the past couple of years, I’ve found strange signs harder to come by. They can be found at any time and just about anywhere but you can’t just make them appear or set out to find them.
While visiting the Sultanate of Oman, I came across what I found to be a strange message in an odd place. Continue reading Ridiculous Street Signs #20: In Oman, For Payphone Fault, Please Call…
