Travel Picks: Top 10 weird attractions

SYDNEY (Reuters Life!) - For travelers seeking the outlandish, travel review website IgoUgo.com has come up with a list of its top 10 weird activities ranging from cream fights to cockroach races.

This list was compiled by editors at IgoUgo.com on recommendations from its readers and is not endorsed by Reuters:

1. The Great Whipped Cream Battle - Olomouc, Czech Republic

Fluff flies during this highlight of Olomouc's week-long city festival.

"Volunteers are divided into opposing teams and asked to arm themselves with trays of cream. There's a countdown and then the teams rush towards each other. When the teams meet each other in the centre, the cream starts to fly."

2. The Modern Toilet Restaurant - Taipei, Taiwan

Find good food for less than $10 at this Taipei eatery - provided you don't mind eating out of a (replica) toilet bowl.

"Eating here was a very unique dining experience to say the least. You are seated at a bathtub (your table) surrounded by toilets (your seats). Your food comes in your own sizzling toilet bowl."

3. Eeyore's Birthday - Austin, Texas

In Austin, adults and kids alike use Winnie the Pooh's fictional friend as an excuse to party.

"Eeyore's Birthday has been celebrated for more than 40 years here in Austin. Admission is free and money raised from the sale of food, drinks, face-painting, etc. is donated to local non-profits. The celebration is held in Pease Park, close to downtown and accessible from the Shoal Creek hike and bike trail."

4. Sourtoe Cocktail - Dawson City, Alaska

Anyone with a strong stomach can gain entry into the Downtown Hotel's Sourtoe Cocktail Club by sipping a drink containing one of the hotel's preserved human toes. Make it a big sip; rules say your lips must touch the salted toe.

"So now I am a member of an exclusive club,/Of those who drank a toe that was just a shriveled stub,/And then I promptly left the bar,/To get my toothbrush and mouthwash and proceed to scrub!"

5. Cabbages and Condoms Restaurant - Bangkok, Thailand

The restaurant's name raises eyebrows, but it's all for a good cause.
