First, I would like to say I finally have a departure date. I will be leaving on December 30th. Looks like I'll be spending the New Year on a plane...for 14 hours!! In other interesting China News... I recently read a book called "Pretty Woman Spitting: An American's Travels in China", writtend by Leanna Adams. She was 26 when she decided to teach in China instead of going to Law School (smart girl!!). During her travels she discovered the trough in a public bathroom in a bus station in China. She described it as an eight by ten room with one long gutter where women enterd the bathroom, found an open area, and dropped trow to do their business...and I mean ALL their business. I am unsure as to how bad I would need to go to use one of these, but if I ever do, I will be sure to post all the gory details. And maybe get a picture. Gross.
I couldn't find a picture of a trough so here is the world's largest public restroom is in Chongqinq, China.
