Oh, this was amazing. I was in India for nearly a month, and this is the ONLY time I saw something that we in the West would identify immediately as a street sign. It was about two blocks from my hotel, standing there on the street corner, like a good street sign should. I blinked in amazement. Indians just don’t do street signs, as far as I can tell. I’d learned how to navigate without them. And here, in yet another Indian city without street signs, here was this one lonely street sign. Baffling. Wonderful. Bizarre.
