The likelihood of that in Okinawa is quite low, though. A lot of them are well maintained, apart from the usual flooding that occurs because of rainwaters, and even forms of art on the outside.In keeping with the theme, the first one that I am going to share is titled saikolo (dice).<a href="https://www.okinawa.org/media/saikolo.190/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.okinawa.org/data/xfmg/thumbnail/0/190-846179290cbe12f6ab030525f672f7d8.jpg?1552030819" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> I'm uncertain as to why they're called "banheiro" as that's what they always have been labeled on my phone, despite having kanji (Japanese) of "public restroom". But, that just sounded better than, "Hey, here's a bunch of toilets." <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
