In complete disclosure, most fell into the Truckstop / Gas Station category (not the good kind) and did not even get a passing mention to friends and family. However, when I encountered a particularly captivating bathroom, I felt compelled to share this knowledge with all I knew.

It seems rather strange, but we all, at some point or another, have to use a public restroom. When we are on vacation, as Becky is / was, we simply must use one that is not our own. So when I found one that felt clean, spiffy, fancy or even Magical (in a nod to Disney), I felt it my obligation to share.

Some memorable ones:

- The bottom floor men’s room of the Tallahassee State Capital Building (the new building)…super clean, never used by anyone, maybe they kept it really nice for the legislature?

- A boutique store in college that I waited in for several hours while a friend tried on clothes…just really fancy, smelled fantastic, they had all female clientle, stood out in my mind as very high end.

- Disneyland (California) has a few stellar bathrooms. The kid’s changing station at the end of main street truly has “the happiest potties on earth”

OK, sounds weird, but the post prompted my thinking.
