It's been a while since I done a Loo post, this time it will be an Amsterdam one from my few days during HiveFest.
First up are these funky toilet doors in the venue on our first evening out. We went to play boules, a ball game using metal balls. The venue was like a restaurant, bar and sports place all rolled into one and was very busy. I loved these funky toilet doors.
On the second day, HiveFest was held in a church called Zuiderkerk . This is the ladies and it looks straight into the main hall. I always felt quite exposed going to the toilet because everyone could look straight in there and see me coming out from the cubicle, washing my hands, or tidying myself up.
I went for dinner with a few girls one evening at a fancy restaurant. The toilet was very stylish. The walls were painted in charcoal grey with brass hardware on the sink, mirror, and a lovely decorated door handle.

On the very last day, we had closing dinner at Karzv De Hoop, one of the oldest boat club in the Netherlands. The toilets here was pretty normal, but I figured I'd take a snap to complete the picture.
And finally, it was time for me leave Amsterdam. These toilets were taken at Schipol Airport. They're pretty basic to be honest, nothing to shout about. Expect for this free standing basin which I thought was very nice. Normally basins are by the wall, this one was in front of the window looking out to the airport buildings. It the first time I've seen basins positioned like this. I think it's much nicer than the boring ones facing the wall.
ANSWERS TO THE OCTOBER HPUD GUESSING CONTEST
This month's HPUD guessing contest proved to be an easy one again and most people guessed correctly - it a the side of a bench. Anyone who guessed this or said the bench is correct. And those who didn't , I think you were just being too polite and wanted to be creative with your answer!!

Hi @livinguktaiwan,

I like the artwork on the doors in the first one. They're fun looking 👍
Yeah, they're really funky aren't they, brings a smile to your face when you see it. I wonder what it's like in the gents!! Should have asked the guys to take a photo of it
Maybe not a stranger though. Asking a random guy to take a photo in the bathroom may yield strange results. 🤔 😆
What I saw of the HivesFest in Amsterdam was excellent according to the visits I have made to your post and that of other colleagues. Really Hive in all the Continents, it has everyone excited, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Now to your daily routine of developing your posts. Successes
Thanks for dropping by @omarrojas
Hits @livinguktaiwan from Venezuela
But brother my answer was right side of an outdoor bench.Where was i wrong?
Anyways congratulations to the winners
Perhaps I should have made it clear, the winners are highlighted in bold. The no by your name means you didn't powerup on HPUD day as shown in the heading.
btw, I'm not a brother
Beautiful wall decorating through art
Yes, it is
It was nice participating in hpud guessing Contest hehehe 🤣🤣 not that bad sir. We keep trying and balling until we hit it correctly ❤️❤️✅✅✅✅✅....
HAPPY new week sir @livinguktaiwan
Thanks for joining in. And I'm not a 'sir'!
Oops 😬, I am sorry about that, it was a mistaken identity please sorry about that...
me encanto el diseño de las puertas del inicio muy llamativasa =)
This is posted in the Loo Loo Community, loo is an slang word in UK for toilets. We need some fun on Hive!!!
I see why you love the artwork on the toilet doors, they are beautiful, it looks so stylish, hehehe.
I hate it too when people see me coming out from the toilet, I'm sure I will not go to such toilets, I will have to wait because I'm a very shy person when it comes to such things.
That hand washing basin at the airport is so cool, I'd prefer looking outside from such view than stare at the mirror all the time, although I know it is also for security reasons too.
Thank you so much for sharing the different styles of toilet there is at Amsterdam, they are all unique in their own ways.
Congratulations to the winners of the HPUD bench contest, I never knew such a thing existed but I do now 🥰.
I think it's interesting to see different types of toilets, as it's a something that people don't talk about much. And that's why I created this Loo Loo Commuinity for some fun.
I do the HPUD Guessing Contest every month on HPUD day, pop by next time to join in!
Yes and it's so surprising to me how I enjoyed reading about it. I never knew of this community too, I will do well to check it out then. Thank you for bringing it to my notice.
Oh wow, I think that is so much fun, I will do well to join next time.
The heavy wooden doors to the loos in the church were impressive. I ought to look out for some interesting facilities to post here.
I didn't notice the heavy doors in the church, was so conscience of everyone else outside when I went to the loo!!!
Hello livinguktaiwan
All the toilets and door you shared are good.
I love the first one. It's really funky.The girls were always watching you when you were doing shit-job inside.🤣🤣
It certainly makes the toilets less boring with these funk artwork
Content and photos were great but why focused on just toilets?
It's awesome to try, and I hope the November guess be more difficult because it seems like it's more difficult when it's easy... Welcome back ✌️
Because this is posted in the Loo Loo Comumuinit. Loo is a slang word in UK for toilets.
November will difficult, I saw something very interesting yesterday!!!
For the life of me, I simply could not see the side of a bench in the guessing contest!
That first toilet really has super funky doors, I love their painting style! Reminds me of a famous SA cartoonist, the late Jock Leyden, whose paintings grace the walls of a local theatre.
No worries Lizzie, it's just one of those days I guess. Always next month!!
Yay, so it was the side of a bench indeed! Thank you for your guessing game @livinguktaiwan and the Bench Club image is so nice 😇
Those doors, with the funky drawings, are very very cool!! 🥂
And as always, thanks for your support every month @mipiano
I got the bench but didn't quite get which part. It really looked like the back rest and not the side though. Anyway, will try again next month. Can't wait to see what you have for us. Keep safe.
