Go Blue. Public toilets


Doesn't really seem that big? Take a look at the next pic:


 

Yep, just a thumb wide.

This is the view from Detroit Airport toilet stall.

Three fingers easily.

I know I've written about it before, but the public toilets here are like a combination of the restrooms of 10th Secondary School of Tartu, where instead of doors there were mini hatches that hid less than a stripper's dress and hi-tech, where the toilet tries to guess when would be the right moment to flush.

First the doors. Public toilets are literally public here. There is always a multi-finger gap between the stall door and the wall, which allows you to comfortably observe what is happening at the sinks while sitting on the toilet, and if outside of the stalls you don't have to guess or throw yourself on the floor to see if the stall is taken or not. Just walk to the door and from several gaps you can clearly see the stage of ongoing business to figure out how long you need to wait.

Often the flushing is automatic, i.e. as soon as it notices a movement, flushing follows immediately. In most cases, even before I zip my jeans again, the toilet has flushed in an average of 3-4 times. Since the toilet paper holders are about 30 cm above the floor, I usually squat down to get the paper from there, and the first flushing takes place right after I get up again. The next 2-3 follow after every other movement. And who are these almost on the floor paper holders for?
