Embarrassing Moment? you decide

This TRUE LIFE Short story which has been inspired by the "queuing" post written by @xFiacre would have me challenging everyone to rack their brains and bring forth something out the archives of some TRUE LIFE drama you have experienced yourself. So I dont do queuing . . . and I need the loo in Antwerp while meandering the beautiful sights. Now at every Café or restaurant they have these "unisex doorless" toilets which had me holding in bodily waste more than ever, which is not very good for any traveler. So on this day, as we left the historic iconic Cathedral of our Lady we walked by the HILTON HOTEL Old Town and I said to the girls - Watch and learn. The Hotel Doorman standing supremely outside (even in the worst of cold weather) and is suited out in top hat and all, watching keenly for any guest that might arrive. I walked up to the door and without a flinch he opened it and ushered us in. I said a humble thank you in my BEST English and we walked in. The Hotel was absolutely beautiful inside and my daughters and I meandered around the foyer and moved toward the ladies restrooms - ACTING like we belong of course. There is a sign posted on the door as we approach that states "Restrooms only accessible by Hotel Room Key" And NOW?? LUCKILY a very 'American' woman and friend (the accent was clear) was leaving as we arrived and there was no need for us to use OUR non existent key card. he he. As we left the very handsome young Reception Manager chatted up my daughters and then stated "Whenever you are in the city, you are more than welcome to use the facilities Ladies" wakakakaka - thanks for listening and reading, great memories flashed through my brain as I read Fiacre's queuing post.
