The sign that one would see when leaving the Como Zoo and Conservatory is written in languages that show the DIVERSITY of people living in St. Paul: English, Somali, Hmong, and Spanish. Admission is free, but DONATIONS are always welcomed!

ReplyDeleteSuch a positive sign recognizing the diversity of the community.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if all those ethnic groups know how deep the snow gets there before the moved!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Sharon! Wow that is alot of snow! Stay warm.
ReplyDeleteLooks like they have everyone included! Here it is usually just English and Spanish.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness I understand one language written on that sign. ^_^ Happy Wednesday!

Wow! I would not have guessed that it was free to visit. That is unusual. I like the sign sticking up out of the snow.
ReplyDeleteOur multicultural society is not only a reality but becoming more so, and something I think we should celebrate!
ReplyDeleteI'm showing my ignorance here - I have never even heard of Hmong!
ReplyDeleteso how do people from SE Asia and Somalia end up in a cold place like St. Paul?
ReplyDeletebut I love the diversity!

Quite a few different cultures convening at the zoo.
ReplyDeleteBut there's no French! (There's a complainer in every crowd, isn't there?)
ReplyDeleteThey should also have the language of Lake Woebegone. :-)
ReplyDeleteNo Norwegian or Swedish, either! and in MinnesOta...!
ReplyDeleteNice zoo, though.
