Shangri La Shop Signs: Well beyond 'Hello Kitty'

May 11, 2009


Almost all of these signs were seen on just a few blocks of one road in Shangri La (two were spotted in Li Jiang). They kept us laughing all the way to the much more serious Agricultural Bank of China, where we couldn't cash our travelers cheques (the hitch was that they're in Canadian funds – big mistake here in Asia) and the visa extension office, which is manned by the police (although the gal there was very friendly and helpful). Here they are:
