Life in China as a westerner on extended visit

And Here the rules when you enter the gates of the Teng Wang Pavilion park.
Note rules 6 thru 9. I don't know what smoking breaking breaking flowers, plants scrawling and pornographic gambling are all about. (Click twice slowly to get a better read)

My favourite ancient Chinese weapon on display inside the pavilion:

And lastly a winter fire prevention notice I received in my Beijing high rise serviced apartment (click twice again for larger view). The stuff about dangerous staffs, cleaning transformers, lighters and mousse, and the fire "exiling wisher" made my day.

Sonny Taylor, I don't know if you've ever visited engrish.com, but I think you'd get a kick out of it.

Yeah I've been there long ago, didn't know it was still around. I thought about looking for it, but I just posted my own stuff instead. Looked at it now and I'm having a good chuckle!

Purchased in Beijing...

I Encountered this in a hotel room in Guangzhou (3rd biggest city in China).
This little bag looks pretty innocent in front if you don't read Chinese.

Here is the back of the bag in Engrish. It promises you the moon!

Will relieve underarm odor, Furfur and the Drug Eruption! A bath in it will remove all your earthly worries.

I didn't try it. I thought the idea of removing my cuticles was a little extreme.

Don't worry about having to find a menu that has pictures to point at, just point at what you want to eat.

It's always FRESH.
