Volcano danger sign

Today's first-of-the-month worldwide Daily Photo Theme is "no" signs. Here is a sign that gives what should be an unnecessary warning to hikers not to walk near the steam vents and bubbling, gurgling mud pots releasing scorching heat from the Rincon de la Vieja volcano.

Note that the Costa Ricans have posted the sign in English as well as Spanish, a reflection of the country's focus on eco-tourism from English-speaking countries.

Rincon de la Vieja has hiking trails past the volcancitas and fumaroles, through a lush cloud forest to waterfalls, streams and opportunities to view wildlife and tropical plants.

It was a bit of a challenge to post a "no" sign to satisfy today's Daily Photo Theme Day. Tamarindo does not have a lot of "no" signs. It does not have any traffic lights or parking meters. The attitude towards life in Costa Rica is embodied in the national expression: "Pura Vida." Although it translates as "pure life," it is used in many of the the same ways that Hawaiians use "aloha."

Hi David,

The bees are back in Brookville, Ohio. I hope for the rest of the year at least. I even got one on my Better Blog Writing post today. LOL

I see you found an adorable No sign for our July Theme Day. This is also a neat photography and I would love to just feel the humidity there. I bet it is high.

Isn't it almost funny to think of adult people scurrying around their communities taking pictures of signs. And if somebody had asked what that is all about and you said a sign with "no" on it, they might... well. It is kind of funny.

You have chosen a unique sign, David. In all my travels around the world today, this is the first sign about volcnoes,

Good choice for the Theme.

Nice sign! Interesting that it lists the temperature, but not the elevation.

Happy Theme Day!

I was thinking as I looked at it that it urged caution rather than actually saying NO which is as it should be.
