Ill try to post picture of my adventures later. I had to find a place for laundry because in my apartment the washing machine is next to the stove in the kitchen which is about 3 1/2 ft wide and the washer is only big enough for about three towels. No dryer, must hang everything out on the porch where people gather to talk, smoke and drink. Didnt want my boxers hanging out with the young-uns. The shower is a whole nother story. It is a hand held sprayer attached to the spicket in the tub. Although there is an hook to attach it to the wall like a traditional shower, the tubing is too short so you have to hold it in your hand and bend over. When you rinse you're hair if you don't bend over enough the cord pops off and you have to reattach it to the sprayer. The first time this happened I just cracked up while washing.
