If there's one thing I miss from home....

...it's the public washrooms. I know, I never thought I would hear myself complimenting public bathrooms in Canada!! I avoided them as much as possible. However, after using the public washrooms (I use the term loosely) here, the ones from home seem sparkling and luxurious in comparison!

Hm, where to start. Ok, well take a look-see here at what a typical girl's stall looks like:

Yummy huh. I don't mind so much squatting, except that the floors are always wet and the bottoms of my pant legs always get wet. I just love wearing other people's pee for the rest of the day! Plus, you are not supposed to flush toilet paper...hence the wee garbage can. This, combined with the wet floors (that are hosed down every now and again) make the entire place stink to high heavens. There is never any toilet paper either; you are supposed to bring your own.

Not only that, but in some buildings, the men's and women's bathrooms are together in one room!
But the worst part is that there is never any soap with which to wash your hands. If there is, it is a dirty old cake of soap, and there is never, ever any paper towel (or driers either), which makes me think my hands are actually germier after "washing," since I had to touch the taps. Most of the time there are sinks, but in this one below, this was all that resembled someplace to wash your hands:
Well on that note, enjoy your weekend everyone! hahaha!!!! No one is allowed to say anything bad to me about the washrooms back home! Ok, I have to mention, not all bathrooms are as bad as the one I posted above. I have been in one or two that are fairly nice, with toilets, and even soap.
