Stairs of death

[pphaneuf]

Here are a few pictures of the "stairs of death" I have mentioned to a few people...


Note the funky "Art Deco" (I think) design, where I hit my toes every other time and feel rather uneasy carrying big heavy luggage upstairs.


Now, this is where they really earn their name. There's space on both sides, so you can plummet to your death, and no railings to help you out (remember, this is the bedroom upstairs, picture yourself trying to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night!). Finally, the "pitch" of the steps is really small, so there's like only half my foot that fits on those steps, not nearly enough to make me feel sure-footed. So I walk like a penguin.
