How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Why Did The Gecko Cross The Road?

in Uncategorized on 11/13/14

Because the sign said it could!

While in the Turks and Caicos we found ourselves watching where we stepped.  Certainly not because the sidewalks were slippery, and not because the neighbourhood dogs had left a mess behind, but because of this…

Gecko,dancing, mating, fighting? Well it was gecko something!

Just one more reason I long to head back to Turks and Caicos…to see how the Gecko crossed the road.

      At first I thought you were kidding me, then I realize you were not. 🙂 Cute little miniature dinosaurs is what I have always thought about them. Thank You!

        We don’t see much in the way of teeny lizards in Ontario Canada, so we were smitten!

      What a fun sign!

      • Stephanie says

        Imagine having so many geckos crossing that they have to warn you! 🙂

        So many firsts while we were away! (and so many geckos!)

      November 13, 2014 at 1:06 pm

      Cute sign! They are very cute playing or whatever they are doing…lol

      • Stephanie says

        November 14, 2014 at 9:05 pm

        I think they were fighting? They were kind of aggressive about their territory!

    14. Suzie M says

      November 13, 2014 at 12:25 pm

      That sign is so cute. When I was in Scotland, in Dundee they had signs everywhere that said Caution Seniors crossing !!

        November 14, 2014 at 9:04 pm

        Oh my goodness! I’m trying to imagine what that would look like!

        I just had to stop and take a picture! I’ve seen some crazy wild life crossing signs before, but this was a first!
