These toilets are great. I told Jim I want to buy one and take it back to the states with us. The best thing about them are the seat warmers:) You can see at the top what looks like an armrest. The buttons are all digital with options like warming the seat and playing music while you do your business.
The kids playing around after breakfast.
Landon had fun entertaining us with more of his "funny faces" at breakfast.
Megan eating white rice for breakfast... she can't get enough of the stuff.
Our overnight stay included a buffet-style breakfast. There was something there for all of us. Megan and I tried tofu and didn't like it. But we did have things like ham, scrambled eggs, rice, soup, salad, bread, pastries, Jim had some sushi, fried egg rolls and coffee. It was delicious!
Settling down for bed.
After getting back to our room from dinner, the maids had came in, removed the furniture and made our beds (Japanese style). The kids and I slept comfortably, but Jim didn't like his bed. He complained that it was uncomfortable.
After our hot springs bath, us girls enjoyed pampering ourselves with the different body lotions and facial lotions.
Megan has just gotten out of the hot bath and is cooling off.
Ashley is enjoying her soak.
Inside the public baths, there are these cleaning stations set up. The Japanese believe that the hot springs are for soaking and relaxing, not cleaning. So before you enter the tubs, you have to bathe yourself using a station like these. Al of these necessary cleaning items are provided for you including a scrub brush.
While waiting for the elevator to take us down to the hot springs, Landon wanted me to get this shot of his shoes. These are the slippers that you were around the hotel.
The inside of our Ryokan. Notice there are no beds. This hotel does offer more westernized rooms, but I requested that we stay in a Japanese room.
I can't remember what they call these robes, but these are what guests put on to walk around in and lounge in inside the hotel. They were very comfortable. Here, we are about to head downstairs to soak in the hot springs before dinner.
