There just aren't that many signs that say "No" in Mexico.
They let you figure it out on your own there.
Here it is:
No parking.
No standing.
No stopping.
No skateboarding.
No bike riding.
No roller skating.
No fishing.
We are curious, however as to how the languages on this particular sign were selected...
Did they do a survey to find out just who fishes off public docks in San Diego?Do they now ask for your first language when you buy a fishing license?
Shouldn't they just go ahead and list this particular "No" in all languages?
What about French?
If I was French, I would be insulted that they forgot me.
How about German?
Or Gujarati?
Or Yoruba?
Or Igbo?
Come on, there are 18 million people who speak Igbo!
Lots to think about here in the

No, no, no, no kidding!!! We feel your pain....!! Like you say, down south of the border they treat you like adults who can figure things out for themselves, here they have to spell everything out for you...at least that's what they seem to think. That's the scary part...
Thats one of the BIG REASONS we like to visit Mex. is that the NO's are few. Try to stay out of trouble. All the Best, M&C
Hey, if you're French or Igbo you can just take your pole and go ahead and fish. You can always say you thought they didn't mean you.
Yeah - I go with 1st Mate on this one. I think I will speak Igbo from now on.
Ijaklaj trat ahksk aohhla aahh!
Way too many signs and way too many rules in the States! Also, we are overwhelmed by the quantity and selection of items in the stores - we can't seem to make a choice. Oh well!
Speaking as an EX Californio, CA is definitely the Land of NO!
