Funny signs in the nearby park

Both Eric and I are sick, ugh.  Not food poisoning, thank goodness, but miserable head colds.  Thankfully, the kids haven't gotten it yet ... but that means they are raring to go while we just want to curl up and sleep.

Today was an entirely free day.  We rented a paddle boat at the nearby park, which XinYi refers to with the same word as plane - "fay-jee-uh".  Not sure if that's correct Mandarin, but we went with it.  She is eating sunflower seeds, which she loves.

After lunch, the kids went swimming with Eric for an hour while I napped.  XinYi is still refusing to wear a swimsuit.  For dinner, we decided to brave the subway system ... turns out it was super easy to use, and very clean - albeit very crowded.  I preferred it to taxis as the air was cleaner in the subways.

I leave you with some funny signs from the nearby park:


Note the lack of paving near the sign   :)

It was merely mediocre.  Semi clean and bring your own TP and hand soap.

Okay, this one isn't a sign ... but still hilarious.  Contents did not live up to expectations.

I think you and Eric both need some of those "special" dates.

Try and find a Neti Pot\Sinus Rinse Pot to get a handle on your head colds. 1/2 tsp of non-iodized salt with warm water.

I find it interesting that so many signs have English on them. I hope you feel better.
