Toilets

In our hotel a few days ago, I was sitting, using my computer in the lounge near the front desk. I was with a friend who needed to use the restroom. Soon I hear her at the front desk, "I don´t know how to flush the toilet...the toilet...toil-let...el baño...sí...I can´t make the water go down...the water...agua...doesn´t go down...agua no down...eh...SÍ!" I was nearly on the ground laughing! Lol.

But the event did bring to my attention the different and random ways to flush a toliet here. No one is the same. I have see ones with buttons that you push, knobs that you pull, petals to step on, switches to click, and chains to yank. Oh the variety! And it is only after you find the location of the flusher that you must discover whether to push, pull, switch, click, stomp, or whatever. Most are located on top of the toilet though are those which hang from the ceiling or are on the wall or on the floor. Tricky these Spainards are. I just hope I never have to ask the front desk how to flush the toilet!
