LOCATION: Valley View Guest House - Manali, India (9/4/01)

RATING: (Five Dunnies)

Although there was a small plague of insects around the light bulb due to the lack of a screen, the view from this Western style crapper took the cake. From the little window you could look up the lush valley and into the snowcapped Himalayas. Undoubtedly there was someone at another guest house looking down the valley at us, but that's the risk you take. All five dunnies for comfort and view.

LOCATION: Road between Manali and Chandigargh, India (9/6/01)

RATING: (Four Dunnies)

A bus companion assured us that this particular toilet was safe for use. What he meant to say was, "there is an impressive display of moss and lichen on the walls. You should check it out." Although touching anything was not an option, the plant growth must have done something to aid in odor reduction. Therefore, only one dunny was removed due to the potential for grass stains on your shoulders.

LOCATION: New Delhi Train Station parking lot. (9/8/01)

RATING: 1/2 Dunny.

Although previously featured on the second Delhi postcard, this street-side monstrosity is worth a second go. Conveniently placed at one end of the parking lot, you must pass unfortunately close in order to exit the station. Four and 1/2 dunnies removed due to staggering odor and the inability to escape it - no matter where in Delhi you are. Photo taken at full zoom.
