Kate and Bryce's house

Wow! What an apartment!It may only have 2 bedrooms but the size of the entire place is a generous 100m sq. This is way bigger than most German apartments. The biggest downside is the 72 stair hike to the third floor, past the brothel on the first floor! LOL - not much action happening there that I have noticed! Lugging our suitcases up those flights on the first day nearly caused a medical emergency!
Oh, I forgot to mention the rather undignified platform toilet. If you have ever had the misfortune of using one you will know what I mean. All unmentionables are collected on a 'convenient' shelf only cm's away from your plumbing. It's so you can inspect your poo, apparantly, to see if you are healthy! Go figure! It's not exactly quiet either. It gives new meaning to the taunt "I can heeear you", because we all hope to avoid being heard doing something that nobody else ever does! You can't hide from the platform toilet!!!

Oh so great to see what it looks like inside. I only got to see it from the skype camera when Grant was there and it was pretty blurry really.
