Have Snark, Will Travel - Travel Photo Blog
Hilarious, silly and confounding travel photos, captioned for your snarky pleasure. Because travel is like life -- and life is often funny.
Listen, I don’t know why this shiny cartoon octopus is disgruntled,
or how he became the spokes-creature for apple ice cream pops
oozing with raspberry slime.
I just know he’s proof that all around the world,
marketers are convinced that ten-year-old boys
will eat anything…as long as it’s vile.

Spotted in Rome, this can of tasty potato-esque snacks
urges power to Gli Azzurri, Italy’s national soccer team.
You ask me, Julius Pringles has never looked more
proudly Italian in his cartoon life.
Indian immigrants make up 30% of the population
of the United Arab Emirates,
making this newspaper ad in Abu Dhabi seem a bit less random.
That said, please note the phrase,
“…nestled between light and dainty buns…”
*guffaw*

In Thai, the word “poo” means crab.
It’s actually pronounced bhoo, but is always spelled with a “p”…
…and I, for one, would have it no other way.

At a chicken place in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam,

Oh, Mexico…
…if only you had some context for how racist stereotyping might feel.

In Ronda, one of the fabled White Towns in the Andalucia region of southern Spain, this ranchero simply sidled his horse up to the bar, ordered a beer and some tapas, ate his fill and handed the dirties back down to the waitress –-all without dismounting.
Makes you kinda wonder what else he does in the saddle.

Dear Mexico:
Thanks for taking Frosted Flakes to the next level…
…and adding rainbow-colored marshmallows to the mix.
