Front door?

When you arrive at the bach in Muriwai, you have to walk up a set of wood steps to get to the entry. It's a frosted glass door, as are many front doors in New Zealand. However, the manager of the property directed us around the corner to the huge deck and the sliding glass doors that open from it. I didn't think any more of it.

We soon realized why she didn't take us through that front door. The photo shows that it's actually an exterior door to the (only) shower, so that people coming up from the beach can shower off the sand.

The shower curtain doesn't go all the way around, however. We were surprised when we realized just how much can be seen through the glass, but then we saw the humour in it. We just hope that no-one comes to call when the owners are in the shower. Apparently it's an even better view from the outside!

That's totally hillarious. One way to make friends at the beach!

Our neighbours have a bathroom a little like this... we don't have the heart to tell them.
