Signs

[Monica]

Signs posted in other countries don't always translate so well into english. Here's a few examples:

In a park in Paris: Please do not be a dog.

Hong Kong dress shop: Ladies please have fits upstairs.

In a Belgarde hotel: The restauroom is daily opened.

In a Rome hotel: Please dial 7 to get your car from the garbage.

In a Tokyo rental car: When passenger of foot heave in the sight, tootle horn. Trumpet him melodiously at first, but if still he obstacles your passages, then tootle him with vigor.

Detour sign in Japan: Stop! Drive sideways.

In a Chinese menu (this one is my favorite): Special daily, Cold shredded children and murky sea blubber in spicy sauce.

LOL. English certainly isn't the easiet language, now is it?? Hope everyone got as big a laugh as I did, and have a great day!!!
