Our Temporary German Toilet

So far there has been too much to adapt to in our temporary living space except the bathroom most notably the vastly inconvenient door attachment but more on that later.

First there is the toilet.


That large grey rectangle above the toilet is the flusher.  You push down for flush and up to cancel your flush...I think.  I can't imagine what good it would do because this is what the flush looks like.

It also sounds like a jet engine.

And then there is the shower tub combo.  The tub is really nice, the faucet lies in the middle of the tub so which ever end you prefer to have your head at is comfortable, the tub is also very deep but there is no shower curtain.  Instead there is a four pane fold out glass door, by yourself it's not so bad but if you are sharing your shower with your husband who gets in first and closes the panes you have to fold in a pane get one foot in ( because the tub portion is actually more like a step up and in) and then sneak around the pane as you fold it out again.  

I tried getting both feet in and then unfolding only succeeding in hitting myself in the head with said pane.  It's also super important to remember that you had to step up to get into the shower, and likewise you must step down to get out.
