mellowyellowmonday:AA flags



http://mellowyellowmonday.blogspot.com/

These three AA flags fluttering in the strong wind. Sometimes the gale in Auckland can be very strong. Today when I was stopping at a traffic junction, an elderly gentleman was struggling with his umbrella. It had turned the other way.

I am glad I am a member of AA. Once I forgot to turn off the nights, and when I went to my car after school, the battery had gone flat. The AA man came and recharged my car battery. I was waiting in the cold dark winter evening for a couple of hours.

    I looked it up, blue is the colour of freedom.

    Yellow often represents the sun, wealth, and/or justice.

    don't know why AA chose yellow

    A dead battery would have ruined my day, that's for sure. Thank goodness for the help you received.

    I'm not surprised that Auckland has strong breezes as you are so close to the Ocean. Otherwise, I imagine your climate must be pretty close to perfect year-round. ;-)

    that's really a relief that somebody was able to help you with your battery while you're on the road. Nice capture of the yellow flags. My mellow yellow is here.
