So, here's a quick update about the Japanese O-Furo (bath), since everyone was very curious!

Veeery interesting indeed! I'm assuming the large thing with the peel away lid looking thing is the bathtub? LOL..and you can also sit on the peel away lid when its closed? Or maybe the white thing in the middle of the floor is the seat. Its very different....very interesting though, indeed.

Yes, that's right. It's the O-furo. The top is just a cover to hold in the heat.
No, you can't sit on the lid. Or at least, I wouldn't try it. I'm entirely positive it would break.

Yes, the thing in the floor is a seat, and it's totally mobile, so you can put it wherever you'd like.

Its such a different way to clean yourself; I hope one day I can try it.

Are you going to bring back some of that shampoo?

I think I might :-D

I know that Mark would LOVE this kind of bath. Hehehehe.
