So with the toilet

So the deal with the toilet

So when I first informed family and friends that I was leaving to Perth, the one thing everyone wanted to know was………… does the water in the toilets here swirl counter clock wise. Now a lot of things are backwards here in perth compared to the U.S. For instance they drive on the opposite side of the road. The “no shirt no shoes no service” rule does not apply here. Even the language is a bit different. I have sat my jolly butt on at least 10 different toilets and have carefully watched the water in each and every bowl.

Sounds a little gross but people really wanted to know. The answer is …… NO. Sorry to disappoint you all  but the water does no swirl the opposite direction, in fact it does not swirl here at all. The waters motion is more like a downward streaming water fall with a lot of force if you believe that. OH an one other difference the restroom or bathroom what we call in America is here called a Lou or toilet or often time the long drop…. Try to use your imagination careful so you don’t scare with the images.
