Netherlands Nuesday 15

netherlands 105
The Queen Mother in the Palace Het Loo Restrooms

I'm not sure why I took this one - maybe I wanted to remember that eager anticipation that you feel each time you enter a bathroom in Europe. As anyone who has traveled there knows, there are 101 ways to flush a toilet and each time is a learning experience. It's weird how I remember almost every potty break as a big event.

This certainly is a picture or moment I don't remember. I do look rather happy to find such nice facilities though!

They were nice & shiny - the best for her royal highness!

You got me really curious - any examples?

Jewels said...

Pearlie- I didn't take any pictures of the flushers or the toilets although I do have one of John going in an outdoor urinal that is quite fascinating.

101 ways to flush a toilet... I've only known the lever flush and the half/full button flush and if i'm not mistaken, there is an automatic flusher too. And are there any bidets around?

Jewels said...

I think there were some bidets. 101 is an expression - I was exaggerating a bit!
