Only in China - Part III


 I bought a polo shirt in a local shop a month or so ago and wanted to share the following three images. Well, it was only 10 pounds...


 Seen in a restaurant in Shanghai


 We are family, I got all my sisters with me... Seen in Carrefour in Shanghai.
 A young man not using his mobile phone! Shocking!
 In Shanghai. The personnel is Chinese and was eating noodles and other Chinese food when I passed by. Is that a sign about the quality of their food?

 You find this and similar signs everywhere in China. This one was spotted in the Shanghai metro.
 Shop in ShenZhen, near the airport.
 Telephone in the bathroom of my hotel room in ShenZhen. I wonder who will pick up when you dial '1' and what they will tell you.
 Sign in the hotel in ShenZhen.
 This one was spotted at the Hongqiao, the smaller airport in Shanghai. But you can find similar ones with the red communist star everywhere. 
 The Chinese are trying to fool us. What looks like cold water is warm water. 
 Shop in Hongkou shopping centre. Aphrodite has become AFU.

 Umbrella in the rain, umbrella in the sun.

 Somewhere in China.
 Unfortunately this event never took place. I wanted to send a Chinese friend of mine to find out what they were going to show and talk about, but she received a phone call with the sad news a day before the event should have taken place.
