The good news....there was toilet paper.

In the train station at Yokohama, the second biggest city in Japan, the toilets are holes in the floor. Seriously. I wish I had taken the camera in to show you, next time I will. Walking into the bathroom, it looks all high tech, a grid on the wall tells you when and which stall is empty. So we go into one, and Megan freaks. "THIS IS A BOYS BATHROOM!", she yelled loudly. Luckily, there is a good chance no one there understood her but me. There is a bar to hold onto as you squat and try to keep your pants and undies from getting wet. And, when you squat down, there is a sound of a waterfall, I guess to keep others from hearing your bodily functions. It was interesting to say the least.
