And it's now time for the many murals I saw in Portugal...

In the suburb of Torre, in Cascais, (in Travessa do Sargo 102), painted by Dutch duo Telmo & Miel (Telmo Pieper and Miel Krutzmann), for Infinito Festival Cascais in June 2018.

It is entitled "Glocal" (Collecting the pieces from all around the world which finally make up who I am) with a collage technique which embodies the idea that we absorb multiple aspects of various worlds.

Signs - Jewellery and Books

 For other signs from around the world please check Tom's blog


I saw these signs in the inner-city suburb of Subiaco when I went to see a street flower display for Mother's day weekend - the first one in a jewellery store and the other two at the entrance to a bookshop.

I saw this mural in Cologne, near one of the underground stations. 
A mural showing Cologne's mayor Henriette Reker, one of the very few women in German local politics. I found it very colourful, hence photographed it!



Other murals in Cologne:








Seen at Bonn/Cologne Airport.

Signs - Man Creche

 For other signs from around the world you check Tom's blog post.

A sign that my daughter sent me from when she visited Antwerp, Belgium a few weeks ago, from the Scottish bar "The Highlander" in Antwerp, Belgium.


"Husband Creche - Is he getting under your feet? Why not leave him here while you go shopping. Free creche - just pay for his drinks".




And another "man chair" in a shop in Margaret River (in the South West of Western Australia).

"Ladies! Shop without a care while he relaxes on this chair".

Another mural in Bruhl, Germany. Couldn't really figure out what this mural is about... a nuclear explosion?



This one was in a park by the lake, where we went for a walk - a sports club for kids I presume - "Give everything for Vochem!"     (Vochem being a suburb in Bruhl)

Do you remember hopscotch?  A few of these on the pavements of Bruhl
