Amusement Park II - (the amusement this time, coming at their expense)
During that whole Cultural revolution / “Isn’t being Communist the best!” phase that China went through in the olden times, I bet they had statues of Mao everywhere. I’ll bet it was a statue-fest, a totem carnival, an icon-if-u-likem, a Mao-a-rama.
These days though, no-one cares much for plaster busts of slightly dubious historical figures, so what do you do with the left-over statues?
Mao lives on
Meh- just stick a sheet over it, and use it in an Amusement Park’s Ghosthouse.
Unsurpisingly, JinJiang Park is a rich vein of badly translated English- it doesn’t bother me, and the meaning is pretty much clear what they need, but if Disney opens a theme park here, they should maybe get someone to do the signs that beard knows what they’re talking about:
“And no bloody wine empresses neither!“:
If I’d seen that scary-looking statue, my English would have come out like that as well.
I’m a cigar and wine emperor, occasionally with my non-pregnant wine empress - can I get on the ride?
WoAi- I’ve checked the rules and as long as you’re accompanied by an adult, you should be fine.
CP- good point, maybe they need to separate the two departments
I’M BACK! And not a moment too soon (late) it seems . . .
CP: LOL!
James: I’d be curious what your Chinese sounds like and what the translations/meanings are like . . .
WoAi: you’d better hope “non-pregnant”!
Angie, I know - it would be disappointing to be refused access to the ride just because I knocked someone up!
Pregnancy doesn’t normally stop you getting the ride does it Peter?
Wine Empress? What on earth is a Wine Empress? Wondering if they’re referring to my last girlfriend there.
Eric it’s like a wine Emperor but less hairy legs and dangly bits.
so no, Eric, not like your last girlfriend (ZING!)
Touche’
Random beard!
“get someone to do the signs that beard knows what they’re talking about:”
hahaha i was there this summer….there were a lot of funny stuff in that park.
