This sign is at a major tourist attraction in Natal. It's the Skibunda / Aerobunda. The skibunda is like a magic carpet ride, but with dunes and a lagoon.

Instead of using the proper word 'ski', they decided to spell it as sky (bunda is Portuguese slang for butt, and is spelled right) the

This misspelling could've been avoided if they had decided to spell whole word in Portuguese (esquibunda), but I guess that wouldn't be cool enough.
