This sign is really strange to me, since the Chinese and English are really at odds. The Chinese definitely says "Enjoy the Happiness of Free People" - like "people with freedom." "free happiness" sounds more like "happiness at no charge," which would be 免费, right? I really can't offer much more than that. Have you sent this to the German guy at chinglish.com?

But actually I'm in China. I visit your blog through a proxy and I think probably that is the reason of the wrong flag. There is an American flag behind my name. But actually I’m in China.
