New Zealand Bathrooms
Visiting a bathroom is often the most shocking aspect of traveling to a new country. It is meant to be a place of solitude where one should be able to relax to get the job done. Any deviation from normalcy in the dunny is disturbing and memorable.
The following is from a bog in Stavely, NZ.
In New Zealand they practically refuse tips in restaurants, not so in bogs. To be honest, that's the only tip-demanding toilet I've been to, but the other lack of features are similar everywhere. In this particular case, there is no hot water tap. Who needs hot water if it never gets below 0C?
In this picture there is hot water, but no way to mix it as water comes from two separate taps. New Zealanders don't seem to understand the need to control water temperature. Apparently they go as far as complaining about the lack of separate taps when they travel overseas. There is also a plumbing mystery to do with the pipe that conjoins the male/female toilets. What the hell does it do?
