Did that sign say "tank crossing"?!


On our return trip from the hike, we drove past a military training camp. It was pretty wild actually, because we could hear the exercises happening as we drove. The BOOMing explosions and ack-ack-ack of machine guns were kind of scary actually.

Then, we drove by a sign which read "tank crossing" with a warning that there was "danger of death". I wasn't terribly frightened, but it was a pretty sobering thing to see on the side of the road. Just past the fence, we could see tanks which didn't appear in use. They were likely being used as targets.
