Purple Signs
Another purple offering for Life in Colour.
A Path With Guidelines
That’s the sign for “True Trail” – when you find this sign you know you are on the right way. Wouldn’t it be great if we had these fish skeletons signposted on our path through life and have all doubt removed?
Life would be boring. That’s why it can be more interesting to find these signs
even if they occasionally lead to a
U-Turn. And you back to the last point where you know you were right and try again.

Say it with signs
Car number plates are signs and in Germany they (sometimes) make words. I’ve been collecting them and here are all words I found on cars from F for Frankfurt.
I want to stay

this by dressing warmly.
I hope I won’t look too

Signs
The sign of a fire insurance on a house in Brandenburg. It was founded 1718.
I saw this sign in Frankfurt. I thought it was a foreign alphabet but couldn’t find a match. Then I got up I looked at the picture skew and realised it’s a word: T U M U L T (the same word exists in German), probably the name of a bar.
I think this alludes to a German saying: The place to which even a king has to go to on foot.

These rules rule!
We are often faced with rules – usually negative ones, forbidding something. Many non-German speakers know one German expression: Verboten! (Forbidden!). It doesn’t matter that they are often for our own good, like this one:
saying: Cross the road, it’s dangerous on this side! They still prohibit something.
Children are more often faced with explicit rules. This rule, though, is my all time favourite:
Playing welcome! Children and adults are allowed to laugh and romp around.
In Munich I came across this sign:
Playground for under 16s – Entry for adults only allowed if accompanied by children.
Therefore there is one rule I try to follow (not always but often):
