Arab baths in Sevilla

Right now I am sitting around a table of hot tea and sweet snacks in an Arab bath house in Sevilla. Only an hour ago I was soaking in a hot pool with nothing more on my mind than when I should go to a different pool. My floating was interrupted by a chiming sound and followed by a woman telling me that my massage was ready. I made my way across the hall and was led to a massage table for a very relaxing 15 minute massage. After my massage I made my way back to the different heated pools and enjoyed another hour of relaxation. The Fullers, Kelsey and I made our way from a warm pool to a hot pool, then a dunk in a cold bath. We sat in a salt pool for a while then enjoyed a great steam room. I did have some nasal congestion and a bad cough before I came to the baths but this was an amazingly cleansing experience. Well worth the 35 euros.
 I have been taking some pictures of the Fuller's visit and when I get time to sit down and upload them to the blog I will do just that. This week I am also studying for and taking a few midterms so most of my time will be dedicated to school work this week.
Hope everyone is having a good week. Maybe take a little time to just sit back and relax like I did today, treat yourself to something nice and you won't regret it.
