New Zealand's Loo's

The Loo's facinated me in New Zealand...they were all so different and yet run by the government. The Super Loo above probably got the prize for prettiest close to Lake Taupo. We walked around the whole thing oooing and aweing over the flowers before we even tried it out.

The one below on the Forgotten Highway was really sweet...someone had taken the time to paint colorful fern trees to spice it up and make you feel like you really did want to go in even though it was smelly.

The Loo below was on Lake Rotorua and had a real Spanish feel to it. i wondered what the artist was thinking when he or she was painting this on.

This next place was along side an estuary just out in the middle of nowhere...a few houses around but nothing commercial...the planners seemed to know that the location would come in handy to those traveling past.

 

And this one located off on its own at the top of MacKinnon Pass was very handy.

The next one was plucked off the Milford trail by a helicopter that came along just after Yvonne vacated it.

And on the Kaikoura Peninsula hike at one end there was a lookout and loo close to each other but what i really liked was the Maori warrior you had to pass to get to them.

And below a regular old loo in Christchurch

The I sites all over both islands can be depended upon to always have available loos so if you just can't wait...look for the small i.

But the most bizarre was when we went into the loo that spoke to us. You had to press the codes to get it to work and were locked in by a sliding door. Once the door closed the voice began to instruct you through the rest of your visit, including flushing and washing your hands.

 

The next one left us a bit flummoxed because there was no seat annnnnd we could lose our car while inside.

We found the next one along side a road we shouldn't have been on but were. Unfortunately we were too early and it wasn't open so some of us relieved themselves nearby.

And i saved this one for last as they must have known i was coming.

See you next year.
