About the Bathroom

I guess I didn't really stop to think about it, but the bathrooms are very different here. Some good, some..not so good.

1.They are almost always their own little tiny room, drywall, paint, real door, deadbolt lock, for each 'stall'
2. Toilet paper unrolls from the center-out, eliminating that annoying(but crafty) brown tube.
3. Paper towels are non-existent.
4. Hand driers are the answer. If they work. If they exist. It's the thought that counts, right?
5. Same goes for soap.
6. Hot and Cold water taps are always separated, which makes finding your perfect temperature a bit like musical faucets.
7. Sinks are so low. Why? Whyyyyyyy? My back hurts, just from washing my hands with no soap and drying them on my shirt (again). Ugh.
8. Oh, and toilets are way more round and compact here. And they make cool flushing noises.
9.Creepy ones are still creepy, Irish highway, or Washington highway.
10. In the McDonald's on South Abbey St in Galway, you have to ring a bell and get buzzed into the bathroom corridor, which is long with steep stairs. Now you know.
