Wow! Nha-trang. So stunningly gorgeous. We probably had the best weather of the whole season while we were in this touristy beach town. The water of the China Sea was so blue. The fishing boats floating on the horizon.... ate up a couple hundred pictures on my memory card over the 2 days we were there. It was so clear, and so...wow.
We finally get to Nha-trang and Tara the Tour Guide, offers anyone who wanted to come, to go with her to a mud bath. Yup. Mud bath. So I joined in on this adventure.
The mud baths were about 20 min out of town, and we were all slightly nervous what was about to go on, and what we got our selves into. But we trusted Tara and went for it.
Two groups of 8 and one group of 6, we piled into these tubs, as the warm mud poured into the tubs, slightly slower than we were. It was gross... but fun. I was in the group of 6, and it happened to be 6 of us who had been on the tour from the start. We almost literally dove right into the mud. The other 2 groups sat around politely, but no, we slid around, dunnked our heads in, rubbed our faces.... we were going to get the best mud bath and mineral absorption we could!
We did not stop giggling the whole time. We slipped and slidded intto each other, we were covered completely in warm, smooth mud. You could tell we knew each other, and by the end of the 6 sets of legs slidding every which way, we knew each other better. After 20 min of mudding it up, and after the other 2 groups moved on to the mineral baths - we joined suit, but not after we showered masssive amounts of mudd off our bodies... (later, when we all showered at nigght, we found out we didn't get all the mud off...oops... :) ).
We joined the others at the baths, but wanted to go play in the man-made mineral waterfall area. It was warm and relaxing, and our skin felt great! We were sad when time ran out, but the pictures that werre taken with water/mud proof cameras will last forever..... ;)
