+This past weekend, Tess and I took a short, one-night staycation in San
+Francisco's Japantown. With all the flurry of things happening in our lives, it
+was so great to get away from home for a a short time and relax.
+
+We booked time at the Kabuki Springs bath on Sunday afternoon. We sat in the
+warm bath, dunked in the freezing cold pool, sat in the sauna and steamroom, and
+lounged on the beds around the pools. The lights were low, the music was chill,
+and it was so good to disconnect. This was my first experience in a communal
+bath, and I left feeling like I wanted to go every weekend. (Tess and I are now
+considering memberships.)
+
+One of the wonderful things about a clothing-optional communal bath is the wide
+variety of bodies you see. It was a great reminder of how diverse we are, and
+how broad the definition of "woman's body" can be. I can't say for sure if Tess
+and I were the only trans women there, but I think both of us came to feeling
+like just one of the women there to enjoy the baths -- not out of place or
+strange at all. It was a really great feeling.
+
+We spent the rest of our time in 日本町 wandering the shops in Japan Center,
+walking around the neighborhood, eating, and relaxing. For only being just over
+24 hours away from home, I was impressed how much it felt like a real vacation.
