Sspppaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Went on a spa day today, to a place called Lion Quays. It was lovely. Lots of bubbly pools, massage-y jets, steamy rooms and one ice bucket (I had to, I couldn't resist! It was bloody cold.) i also had an Indian head massage for the first time ever. "You'll either love it or hate it" my therapist said. I'm completely ambivolent about it. It was okay, quite relaxing, but the bits on the neck/back/shoulders was much better than the actual head bit. So...probably won't do that again.
Then, however, Sue and Elf Made A Porno. Well...may as well have done.
We got put in a room, with two bowls of mud, told to press a button, shut the door behind us, cover ourselves in mud, wait for the steam to set in and then wait for water to rain down from the ceiling.
We made a mutual decision that topless was the way to go in this situation. And started smearing mud, white mud for faces, dark brown mud for bodies. So there we are, smearing mud on our boobs, each other's backs, frankly looking like we were doing some sort of lesbian black-and-white-minstrel fantasy porn shoot. And then the anticipation waiting for the water is horrific! You sit there, the room filling with more and more steam...and suddenly wooosh! Water which is warm...freezing....HOT comes down on you.
We laughed so loudly we disturbed P who was having a dry floatation in a room nearby (through three closed doors!). Hers was meant to feel like she'd had eight hours sleep....or half an hour listening to two hyenas laughing, I guess...
Anyway, very nice. We're slowly sampling our way around different spas.
