Lost in translation - part 1

We've been in Asia for about a month now, and unlike South America where the language similarities to English can help you get by, there's no figuring it out when you see things written in Japanese, Korean or Chinese. So we are thankful that our friends in Asia often go out of their way to display signs in English in addition to the native language. Having said that, sometimes their English language efforts fall comically short. Here are a few of our favorites...

Quite ambitious for a business selling walnut cakes














Japanese candy


From the bathroom in the back of a bus











Just so far off on this one...



Got to love international gum













Showers are just sooooo yummy!
