How to Use the Toilet

Travel and tourism is a huge industry in this part of the world and, that's a good thing.

People from different countries, don't always have the same bathroom etiquette.

So, signs like this are posted in airports, hotels and convenience stores.

It's kind of nice, the way they make these instructional signs, in Japan.

Just in case, you aren't fluent at reading, they make simple symbols for you to look at.

1. Please sit on the toilet seat, with your face pointing away from the lid.

A. Don't sit facing the lid.

B. Don't squat on top of the toilet seat, facing the lid.

C. Don't squat on the seat, facing away from the lid.

2. Flush used toilet paper in the toilet bowl.

A.  Don't throw used toilet paper in the trash can.

B.  Don't throw used toilet paper on the floor, either. ( I made that one up).

For Those Kids Who Can't Read

1.  Pull your  pants up, zipper or button them and, make sure nothing's hanging out.

2.  Then, go wash your hands with soap and water.

Those are some things, I wish they had symbols for, on these informative signs.

Today Some Telephone Poles and Power Lines Got Moved

Before and After

 

 

Here's an example of something you may come across in your travels with the camera.

It was impossible to photograph the weekend's events, without seeing lots of overhead wires.

Not someone who likes to spend hours photo editing, I had to find a simple solution.

Telephone poles, wires and satellite dishes can be big distractions in your photos.

With  something as simple as Adobe Elements, they can be removed.

Before:  Power lines and poles

After: Telephone poles and wires removed

 It Takes a Bit of Practice

 

 

Extreme makeovers are something, I wouldn't recommend for beginners.

There are many YouTube videos and tutorials available online and, they are free.

A few links to some sites, I visited today:
