That toilet brings back memories of attempting to use a squat toilet in a mall near my work in Japan![]()

Yep..
Don't ask about the spider near the loo in the Philippines..
I remember when i was living in Puerto Rico, visiting some people who lived in a poor community where all the houses were rickety shacks built on stilts hovering several feet over a mangrove swamp. The houses were standing in the air over the water on these stilts, and there was a network of planks on stilts connecting the houses, like 8" wide pathways suspended high up. scary! Bare light bulbs were strung on wires connecting all the houses and lighting the plank paths as well, like strange Christmas decorations.
Anyhow, while visiting the people there, I had to go to the bathroom and they pointed me to a little curtain across a corner of the room. Behind the curtain was simply the corner of the room where a 6" hole had been cut out of the wooden floor, and a roll of TP on the floor next to it. That's it. Well I used it, but the oddest sensation was seeing the mangrove swamp water rushing by through the hole. Continuous flush mechanism!![]()
Makes you really appreciate luxuries like toilets, plumbing...even having actual ground to walk on!
