Onsen

Sitting as it does on the Pacific Ring of Fire, Japan is blessed with abundant natural hot springs. Some of this water is used for the famous Japanese mineral baths known as an onsen.

The routiine is simple. Enter the onsen, shower, gently ease into the steaming pool of water, and try and ignore the other people.

I'd show pictures but my camera lens kept fogging up.
