indigo_rose99Today's feature toilet is in a Women's restroom in Memphis. It is in a handicapped stall, the only ones that will actually allow a single human being and two small pieces of carryon luggage.
This toilet, like many in the US, appears to have been designed and installed by A Man who never considered the vague possibility of actually needing to sit on the toilet. This man, like many men must feel, must have had good aim. And a small bladder. Unlike many women's airport toilets, this one only sprays water at each flush about 12 inches beyond the bowl. However, it makes up water force with sheer enthusiasm, managing to flush four times in the time it took me to open the door, pull in my carryons, and grab a piece of toilet paper to cover the sensor.
