The world is colour and so are its pictograms
For a visual such as me, a delight - always
II
International language for international travellers
Is a bus always a bus?
III
What time does the plane take off?
Where are the escalators?
When is the post-box emptied?
Why do the arrows point in the same direction?
IV

I packed my suit case and went to the airport by bus. I took the shuttle to my terminal and the escalators to the lounge. Then I remembered I had not posted my envelope! I followed the arrow back downstairs keeping an eye on the clock!
VIII
One colour to the next my eyes flick. I have started my trip!
IX
Movement always, where has stillness gone?
Maybe I could just pause and close my eyes for a while?
X
Life: a multiple facet journey full of endless escalators and arrows like thorns
