Mostly cloudy, 17C (16C)
So I was watching some construction workers on my way to work one day recently. Next time I see them I will take a picture so you can see the getups they wear, here. I love their pants. They especially make me want to take them off, etc....
Anyway.
Recently it seems like I can't escape talk of onsen (hot springs) ; and recently I've really, really wanted to go to a bath-house ; there's one very nearby my place (as there is in virtually every urban neighborhood predating WWII in this country), but I feel like I might be spied upon or meet one of my students, or their mother or grandmother or something there so as much as I want to take a nice hot BATH, the prospect of naked-time with such a character has kept me away...
So Arima, a very famous hot springs area (Wikipedia and the horse's mouth), is just on the mountainside, here. Overnights are about Y30,000 ; even cheap-o daytrips start around Y5,000. However, there are two public bath-houses there--the cheaper one is Y630. Guess what I plan to do this weekend. =D It means putting off fixing that pile of boxes... but... maybe I can live with it if it means a dip in ginsen (carbonated radium water, yoshha!).
