Difficulty with the bathroom
So here is my funny story for the day. We decided to take a drive today to a mountain town called Elena. Ivan's parents thought it would be nice to show me the mountains and spend a little time in a small village. The drive was beautiful and there was more snow on the ground through the mountains. We arrived in Elena and walked around for awhile and then went to a coffee shop to sit for a bit. At this point I REALLY had to pee but was trying to be polite and not rush everyone to stop for me. Plus it was NewYears day and not very many places were open. So once we sat down at our table I quickly found the restroom. The problem was that there were no toilet seats, there was just a hole in the ground. I thought I had gone into the men's room instead of the women's so I went back out and asked Ivan to come help me. He assured me that the restroom was both for men and women and I just had to pop a squat and pee. I have to thank my parents for all of our hiking experience and peeing in the woods because it helped me use the bathroom in Elena, Bulgaria. The next time I pee like that I hope I am in the woods and not in nice clothes in a coffee shop. What a day :)

Oh my gosh. This story really made me laugh. You probably thought you were in some third world country!! You are welcome for all the times you had to pee and other things in the woods while hiking and backpacking. Your stories are making be "God bless America" a lot more. Can't wait to read about your next adventure.

Builds character and it's good you have strong thighs. I'm pretty sure that when I used one of those in France once, I accidentally peed all over the floor. I hope that you had better aim!
