Outside a classy English pub in the countryside near Bath: "No Football Coaches." (In England, "football" is soccer and a "coach" is a motor coach. Translation: rowdy busloads of soccer fans are not welcome.)

Road sign in Kenya: "You are now entering Belly Button Province."

"Kenya Police College, 'A' Mess"

Advertisement to find a home for a black cat in Kenya (accompanied by photo): "New position wanted. Custom features: (1) Low fuel consumption, (2) Plush black upholstery, (3) Four-on-the-Floor, (4) Cat-alytic converter."

On the unsubstantial cage of a 16' Nile crocodile in Nairobi: "Visitors throwing litter into this pit will be required to retrieve it."

On the shores of the Sea of Galilee: "Danger of Sweeping by Western Winps."
