Warning Sign

One of the odd things that you came to notice after a couple of days in South Africa....was this continual display of a warning....'Indemnity against liability'. 

Over and over.

I probably observed at least seven-hundred signs over a two-week period. 

You saw them in public settings.  You saw them in safari camp settings.  You saw them on beaches. You saw them in public parks.

In a normal day.....I doubt if I went more than twenty minutes without observing them....at least outside of the hotel/lodge areas. 

At some point, I began to wonder if this was the one and only warning you got prior to walking around some corner and meeting up with some snake or lion.
