Jenny latched onto the humour behind many of Australia's signs pretty early on--she's even created photo albums filled with signage snaps while traveling around the country.
I've finally caught on to the brilliance of this idea. It's not just that we find these signs funny--it's that most Australians don't. Just goes to show that even mundane objects like signs illustrate that while we speak the same language, our ways of interpreting it can be vastly different.
Here's a small selection of some belly laugh-inducing signs we've seen so far.
