Weekend Confusion by laurentye

Weekend Confusion

Okay, this may very well be one of the worst pictures I've ever posted, but really it was this or nothing :)

My husband and I discovered this in the bathroom of our hotel on the weekend, and it was a topic of debate all weekend. Neither of us has ever seen one of these and so we were very confused and curious.

"it's some sort of strange toilette!" I would say
"No way! i think it's suppose to be for washing your feet or something" my husband would argue.

After some extensive research (calling my mom and asking her), I've come to learn that this is called a Bidet and is neither a toilette nor a foot bath...

Oh my, can't comment on its "cleaning capabilities". But, nice B&W nonetheless.

haha this brings back memories of lots of teasing people whay it did. My frined thought it was a kids wash basin & the water hit the ceiling when he turned it on :)

@spthorne hahaha oh that's funny! well fortunately this one didn't shoot water that high! i thought it could be a wash basin too once i realized that it couldn't be used as a toilette haha :)
