I also love a zip lock bag full of baby wipes.....

It's even better when you keep em nice and warm by keeping the bag inside your shirt...

lucky

We Amercians dont know how lucky we are!

Here in Mexico they use the waste basket to receive the used toilet paper, so when you enter a public bathroom, there is always a sort of pungent pleasantness waiting for you.

Here! Have a seat! Just be careful when you bend over to sit down that you dont get your head too close to the bucket.

Africa was worse, but not by as whole lot.

P.S: I intend to leave Monterrey, Mexico tomorrow AM for South Texas, looking for some help to repair the repairs that were just done to my PA12. Anyone got suggestions for a reasonable place to get some work done. Not fancy, just properly on a working airplane.

Thanks all...

I use those too Alex. The big roll is for my passenger. They get the cheap stuff. I keep the baby wipes for myself. :lol:

I was just in Monterrey last week. I wish that I had known that you were in the area. Maybe we could have had dinner.

I would never...

I would never have brought up this subject, but you should try Turkey's public bathroom. You nose will tell you when you are getting close to it. In this facility, they don't have toilets, just holes in the tile floor, and NO toilet paper. There is a earthern jug at the door with a woman standing there collecting a small fee, and yes, she watches you all the time. One thing though, is everybody uses the same jug of water to wash their hands in.

I spent 16 months in Turkey and Iran in the early 70's. I've been there and know what you mean. Do they still have WC over the door identifying the restroom?
 
water

In Nigeria you don't get the water. Just the hole in the floor.

We are lucky in the USA, and I believe we earned it.

I'm now in McAllen TX in that very funny looking PA-12 looking for maintenence help. Next stop San Benito at Kornegay's. Anyone know what's become of Ernie?? AlaskaAv? Is he OK?
