    Roadsigns and mail boxes

    November 14, 2019 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C

    Some unusual signs have been “McDonalds 130km” - that must be enough to put everyone off their journey. We missed taking a picture of that one managed the one at 58k .

    There are lots of signs suggesting the driver takes a break and even offers a free “driver reviver” if you stop when it’s open. Will try one of those but wonder if they’ll give me a decaf’ - or will they feel that’s missing the point?

    On a couple of stretches they have had trivia quiz questions - see the photos.

    One thing that has really cheered us up have been the mail boxes made from disused items. Commonly they are old microwaves, but we have seen washing machines, a toaster, oil drums, water/chemical containers, gas containers etc, plus some more artistic, Ned Kelly and one with a lawn mower mounted on the top. We will try to get more photos, but it’s only really possible down the dirt tracks.
