Will Miss #89 - Japanese bath


I love our Japanese bath, even though it's looking a bit worse for wear and the tile is a pain to clean. I don't like it for it's biggest feature, the Japanese tub. There are two types of baths in Japan. One is a "unit bath" which has a toilet in the same room as a Western style tub. The other is the type with a super deep, but very short tub. A tall person has to sit with knees bent and a really tall person may have to put knees to chest. The thing I like about the bath is that the external area is very large. Two, even three people could shower together comfortably in the space. It's not that I'm advocating group showers or anything, but rather that it's just really comfortable to shower in.

I'll miss our roomy Japanese bath.
