I have had similiar toilet experiences travelling in Mexico and Central America back in the 1970s, often with no toilet bowls at all. Funny thing is that you could buy drugs over the counter that were considered dangerous back in Canada (requiring a script). My dad had some great photos of public toilets in Paris at the end of WWII, basically holes leading down to sewer surrounded by a circular screen, a glorified latrine. Different cultures, different attitude. The Squat Blocks are still prevalent in parts of Europe today.
