Unisex sinks

This is a perfectly lovely and ordinary looking pair of sinks. What I couldn't show you easily is that they are located outside the two sets of toilets at this brew pub in Kansas City. There isn't any reason that men and women can't share the same set of sinks to wash their hands, is there? 
And that is a cool-looking dispenser on the right!

Just humor us

Most of my posts focus on finding humor or flights of fancy in public restrooms. Usually I go for the visual, not the literal. However, sometimes it is right there in front of you.
This was a sign outside the restrooms of the Bottle Rocket Brewery in Seward, NE.

Family time

We found this important unmistakable sign at Pike Place Market in Seattle. It is placed a bit high so that it can be seen from a distance but you might miss it if you were too close.
What a story this can tell!
Don't let anyone tell you that pictograph signs like these are soulless and impersonal

'Tis

 
Like last week's post, these restroom signs hail from a restaurant near the harbor in Halifax. 
The sharp-eyed might conclude that it is, indeed, from an Irish pub. 
I had headed downstairs to find the restroom and came back with that look in my eye. Each image is labeled appropriately in brass with the Irish word for Ladies 'Mna' and Men 'Fir '

Robert and I are pretty sure the pub was Durty Nelly's. If so, this pub was actually constructed completely in Dublin and then transported and assembled in Halifax for that 'authentic' feel. Though the truth be told, the most actual Irish pubs are a heck of a lot darker, smaller and older than this one. A lovely experience, though.

Get the picture



These sweet signs were mounted outside the respective restrooms in a seafood restaurant in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I would be interested to know the story behind them. The mermaid and seaman are each posed on the same rock, same cloud, same bird.
As usual, I had to snap these quickly, to avoid startling some poor soul trying to exit.
