What is up with Japan's fascination with Toilets. There are restrooms everywhere...western style with the throne that we are all use to, and Japanese style toilets that are basically a porcelain ditch in the floor. I have to say they have enthralled me and wish there were more like them in the US.
The main brand is Toto and they even have a museum of toilets in Tokyo. We did not go, maybe next time, but fortunately there are everywhere but unlike in a museum these you can acutally touch. (Trace would love all of this, as almost every other word is poop, such as poopy head, poop ice cream, poop on you...you get the idea) You would think that there is not much you can do with a toilet...but I challenge our simple, unimaginative toilet repressed culture...Japan, as always is on the leading edge. Features (all of which are activated by the touch of a button)
Heated Seat
Deodorant feature...not the inferior tidy bowl product, but an actual button you push that perfumes the air
a bidet
a shower
music, very soothing
flushing sound (not sure why they need an artificial flushing sound, when the toilets actually flush, but perhaps i am just to naive)
and my personal favorite - the blow dry system, truly unbelievable
As I encounter more features I will be sure to add them
