9月21日(日)快晴
エスプラネード(海岸通り)の道路標識。豪州は情緒主義ではなく徹底した合理主義。トイレはトイレット。米国のように休憩室とか粉部屋とか美名は使いません。10進法のメートル法表示。左450mのトイレは個室で男女共用。右300mのトイレは男女別。どちらにもシャワーがあり、海水浴客は着替えが可能。S禁は停車禁止の意味。「歩行者は車に道を譲れ」つまり車優先社会です。電線は都市部では地下配線ですが田舎では電柱。電柱はコンクリート製ではなく木製。
車優先社会
政治も日米は情緒主義

Yield to car on road in Australia
Sun. September 21 : fine
This is a sign on Esplanade. Australia is not the country that believes sentimentalism but drastic rationalism. A toilet is a toilet, neither a rest room nor a powder room as they call it in the US. OZs use the decimal metric system. There are unisex toilets that go on the left for 450m and single-gender toilets go on the right for 300m. They all have the shower room so the swimmers can get changed there. No-S means no stopping. “Pedestrians give way to traffic” means it is the car-priority society. The electric cable is wired underground in the cities but they have the power poles in the rural area. The power pole is made of wood but concrete.
