Restrooms

Some people may wonder about the infamous issue of restrooms in China. It is hard to imagine that a restroom facility visit could be so different from one in the U.S. Even in very modern facilities, in many cases, there are no western toilets as U.S. citizens know them. I am including a picture of a restroom facility for those who are unable to picture what type of toilet is available here. Chinese people have these same facilities in their homes, and all public restrooms have these facilities. Occassionally one gets lucky and there is a token western toilet also. Much bonding has occured over this one issue, especially with the women in the group. I might also add that this issue has seperated the good bladders from the bad.
