I took this photo through the car window. Just as we were passing it, I thought “Mellow Yellow Monday” and quickly snapped!
Just in case you don’t know what it is, it’s a ‘Belicia Beacon’ and they are placed at a ‘Zebra Crossing’. And in case you don’t know what a ‘Zebra Crossing’ is, it’s not where zebras cross the road, it’s where we cross the road. It’s called a zebra crossing because the crossing is a black and white striped area! Now I expect you are going to tell me you knew all that anyway :O)

No I didn’t know any of that! That’s very interesting. Why not make the post black & white too? LOL

Drowsey: You know I think the posts may have been black & white when I was a kid.
