Hot Springs Eternal

The ryokan where we stayed was very low-budget, but clean. It had everything we needed plus indoor and outdoor hot springs. This was Joanna’s first experience with public bathing, although she lucked out because it was actually private. So, the two of us decide to take a dip into the relaxing outdoor hot springs. It was a really quiet place, the sky was clear, the stars were out. It was very serene. Then we get into the bath and the pipes that keep it from overflowing started making ridiculously loud farty noises.

To make up for the Beavis-ishness of this story, here are some more pictures of us at the ryokan.
