  3. That's funny. They looked double-parked. What does the sign on the right of the melons say?

  4. It literally says, "Fresh Flower".. No idea why/

  5. if I'm correct, which i might not be, Chinese are not always as 'direct' as Americans, so a melon is the fruit of a particular flower... so considering both of those, indirectly, 'fresh flower' makes sense... I think

  6. I asked a Chinese friend and she said, "鲜花 xiān huā" simply means fresh flowers. So, it is a sign for the guy's fresh flowers behind the melons, haha! Complicated.
