“Bad (Badezimmer? Schlecht?)” / Bad or bathroom
A couple of years ago, some friends and I were walking around Governors Island, NY and wandered into a glamping site (“glamorous camping” if you’re unfamiliar). Even though we hadn’t made reservations we still got to enjoy some hot drinks from their restaurant tent, and I got to check out one of their tented private restrooms. Not quite “roughing it”!

Sunny day, sweeping the clouds away. On my way to where the air is sweet.
