Certainly one of the less glamorous aspects of traveling in weird parts of the world is the toilets you will encounter. One of the things to love about the Internet is that sites like this not only exist, but win awards.

I think it is worth noting his omission of Egyptian public toilets (see under ``Toilets I Won't Show.'') I know Josh would agree after our trip across Sinai. Fortunately I was able to hold out until the hotel in Cairo. (-:

I thought that Western Europe was all ``culturally enlightened,'' but these ideas were shattered upon discovering toilets of the squatter variety not only in central Geneve but also at a restaurant in Paris.

This is really a dreadful place to be on a Sunday after all of the summer students have gone away. I have one more week of work, but I am not really expecting to be doing anything. At least I get to move into a room again tomorrow night (in St. Genis), so I'll have a few nights in a bed before I leave.

In the meantime I'm really oscillating in opinion about my upcoming travels. I've been reading my LP a lot today, though, and some of the spots in the Baltic sound pretty nifty. I'm also thoroughly excited about being able to hang out in Lund for some time. On the other hand, I'm also pretty excited about just getting home to the States.
