Unique signs


We were happy to see that whenever any thing that was written in Chinese had a translation with it, it was always written in English.
I did enjoy the clever translations like this sign on the escalator in the airport. For some reason from this point forward Paul and I were often refered to as "oldsters".


When we checked into our hotel in Yangshuo, we were really impressed with how beautiful and clean our room was. We especially were impressed with our sanitized toilet and the invitation to enjoy and use it "at ease"! So thoughtful!


Most of the restaurants in Yangshuo posted their menus and "specialties of the house" on a poster outside of their restaurant. I didn't take the time to read all of the signs on all of the restaurants but this one definately caught my eye. Needless to say, we didn't stop in for a meal!

If you had any of that crispy dog porridge you probably could have used that spiffy toilet even more! I love the colorful boat. What a fabulous experience for Heidi's kids to see such cultural differences at a young age. They'll always have a unique perspective on the world.
