Scavenger Hunt Catch-up: Travelling Toilets

Hey ya'll. Here's a picture of an Irish toilet:


This is from my brother and sister-in-law's house in Dublin. It may not look like anything special, but I think this toilet-scape beautifully captures the crisis that a young household faces upon running out of "toilet roll" just days before leaving the country for good. On the one hand, our delicate sensibilities called for more toilet paper, but on the other hand, we couldn't stand making that kind of investment when we'd probably have to leave most our newly-purchased papel hygiƩnique behind. Solution: random box of weirdly perfumed tissues that would, as my sis-in-law pointed out, "make all our parts smell like flowers."

Fin.

(Indian toilets/food to follow shortly.)
