If something has to go wrong, I assure you I have to be there.
And yes, that is exactly where I was. After a tiresome 10 hour flight I treated myself with filling out lost luggage forms. The fact that I got up at 4 am and didn’t get a shut eye all flight long did not help me. The interior of the plane basked in mustard shades, the seat was very narrow, the food was not to my liking and I deeply regret I didn’t take any pictures of the plane after we landed. I had to literally shuffle through piles of garbage, blankets and pillows laying on the floor to get to the exit.
The lady behind the counter tried to be nice but after standing and waiting for my luggage for 2 hours I was not feeling of returning the patience. I wanted my damn suitcase! She assured me I will get my stuff the next day which pacified me some.
It took them 4 days.
Slovenia is very small. 2 million population. If I fart my neighbors know what and how much I ate for lunch.
When I was a kid I had to first sort the laundry before I hanged it, so sheets came first, towels, larger clothes and panties and socks at the end. The reasoning behind is very simple … the sheets came first so neighbors could not bask in the glory of your undies.
When I started smoking I literally walked for 3 km to get a secret drag in my system. If anyone would spot me I might as well broadcast it on the news.
At age 21 I had to buy a pregnancy test. I won’t go into the details of it but I did it in a pharmacy 3 towns away from mine. My mother found out anyway.
Safe to say that in a small country your business is everyone’s business.
So if I had a hypothetical dog named Georgie and took him on a hypothetical walk where he would take a hypothetical dump I would have to pick that up. If anyone would see me not picking that hypothetical Georgie’s poo I would be in big, Big, BIg, BIG trouble. It is simply not done. I would be looked at, pointed at, yelled at and probably tied to a shaming pillar in the middle of the village.
So imagine my surprise when walking the streets of Mississauga looked like a hurdle challenge. Just walking around my complex I counted over 20 dumps. Yes I counted! By the end of the week it became my new OCD obsession to pass the time while strolling around.
Just pick your shit up.
I had to laugh out loud. And I am not "lol" this statement because this was a really funny read! Obviously, determined by the photos, you made it to the Ripley's Aquarium despite the piles of dog doo doo everywhere... Or by the sounds of it... You made it there because of the piles of dog doo doo! Hahaha!

I actually loved the Aquarium. We don't have any in my country so this was my first one ever. I am sure that to some it may not have been that special...but i trully had fun walking over it and lucky for me no dogs allowed...or id be doomed to look at the floor all that time too! :D

Oh, this made me laugh. I know, clean up after your pet. When we had our place in the Boston, we lived in the row houses that faced a common park that ran for blocks. All neighbours used it for their pets, of course and though you would not see your neighbours in their homes and it was a large city, you'd still pick up because you knew in those tall windows in all those brownstones, were eyes peeping out of shutters and curtains spying to see who didn't do it.
Now, in the country I don't bother, but on three acres you'd think it wouldn't matter, well it does because the tiniest chihuahua poops are easily found by @winstonaldens feet whenever he goes on a walkabout on our property ;)

I, for one, feel like dog poo adds to the beauty of a place. Check out this pretty little dump I photographed yesterday...

Nice pictures - I've never been to an Aquarium myself...
As for poo - my city has over 2 million population, dogs not included. The first thing a baby hears when it learns to walk is: "Watch your step!"

Yeah this was my first too...no aquariums in my country. I was in awe...but thats me. Landscape itself may not move me that hard but animals do...rly loved when they swimed above me.

Best laugh I've had all day.
Does your village really have a shaming pillar? We've still got stocks and pillories around, but mostly restaurants put them out front when they want to capitalize on our Puritan heritage.

Nah, no shaming pillar. :) I actually rly enjoyed watching those when in Prague (in a museum). We only have a few left standing in the whole country.
