I’m sure Leo was not tired of me, but he suggested a spa and I thought, well I’m on vacation…..The name of the spa was Voya, specializing in seaweed baths. I’m adventurous, so with a creepy feeling I make an appointment. People are going in and out like crazy. It must be FABULOUS. Leo did tell me what to expect, because apparently men do this too.
I go. A sweet Irish lass asked if I ever had a seaweed bath before and then went into what to do. In the room is a private steam, with shower, which you need to do.steam for 5 minutes and then step into the tub. Picture a tidal pool covered with seaweed…..nice, huh? I step in, sit down and try to relax. Leo told me to squeeze the puffs on the seaweed, the gel is the best moisturizer. I found myself squeezing them like they were bubble wrap, just to get my mind off the fact I was in a tub, with weeds, with a sign that says….Enjoy your bath, rest assured it is sanitized after each bath……God I hope so!
So, my skin feels lovely! Worth the creepy feeling, ummmmm. ..I think I may buy my weed on the street!!!!
I moved from the B & B today(sadly), to what the tour guy from Virginia said was : “a wonderful hotel in the town of Bundoran”. Well, my guess is he has never stayed here. Fortunately, Leo stayed to help me with my bags. At the check in, she asked if I would be paying now or when I leave. Leo tells her about the tour and she’s says, yes there is a note t b at he would call back, but he never did. Yep, that’s the guy. Same as he was prior to the trip. I would never use this tour guy again, but other than this hotel, he has wonderful connections here that believe in what they do and just love ireland.
It’s a smoking floor, with a large ashtray in the room, lovely! To get to the room, was like a maze, going up and down at least four steps at a time. Around many corners, until I get to my rroo, which is down four more steps. Poor Leo, my bag has gotten heavier since getting here! The bathroom in my tiny room is UP four steps!
I am not lying! Kudos to Leo during my tiny breakdown! Tomorrow I will be moved to a non smoking room……we’ll see. Oh, and tomorrow when the sun is out, I will take a pic of the view…..not magical!
