Back in the land of free toilet paper!

Happy to be home back in the USA! Land of free toilet paper! You don't know how much you miss something that you take for granted everyday until it's gone. Have you ever seen the Seinfeld episode where Elaine is asking "Can you spare a square?" from under the stall door? Well Manila is that episode except no one has a square to spare. Toilet paper I guess is a high ticket item and many rolls are taken out of public and private restrooms, so they just don't put it in the stalls. If you want it, you have to buy it or act like a blond from the US and then maybe you can score some for free. So if you ever plan on going to Manila, you might just want to bring a few rolls. Oh the creativity that goes on when you are in a pinch. Sorry I didn't get any pics of the stalls in manila, but I think you get the idea. I did get one of the toilet control panel at the Japan bathroom. I will have to post that soon. Hope all is well.
