I remembered thinking I should have taken pics of each toilet I saw or used (many not used ... too disgusting). Everything from the hole in the ground types to the oh what were they thinking on this flushing design. Will, I remember my first trip to EU back in 1995.

On my first trip to France I discovered how weird the bathroom plumbing was. This was many years ago, but then there were two kinds of flush systems. On the newer model, the water shot down the back of the bowl as if under pressure and took whatever was in the bowl and propelled it up the front and over the rim, depositing it on the floor. You learned very quickly to flush and immediately step sideways. The older models featured a cascade of water into the bowl, lots of foaming and splashing, and when that was all over everything in the bowl was exactly where you'd left it. Hey, Welcome Back!
