Amanda Takes Off...

While my Thanksgiving dinner was wonderful, I did something else on Thanksgiving proper. Since reading Jennifer's post about Doctor Fish, I've wanted to do it. Doctor Fish are slightly cannibalistic fish that eat the dead skin on your body.

So Good Man and I went to a cafe near my house. We ordered some tea and could eat whatever bread we wanted.

Shadow of a Tree Please Love Us!

The interior of the café ("Shadow of a Tree Book Café") was very large and airy. It was nice and the tea was good, too.

When our number was called, we washed off our feet, then slowly put them in a bath of water. As you can tell, Good Man didn't seem too impressed.

What Are They Doing?

The fish felt pleasant. I told Good Man it felt like the little fish at home that nibble your toes when you put them in the lake back home in Minnesota.

He looked at me. "You swim in a lake?"

I nodded. I'd forgotten that Koreans don't generally swim in lakes.

The fish bit a little harder than those little minnows, but after a while it felt nice, sort of like my electro-therapy, or a good massage. However, when they stuck their little mouths in the crook of the toes—wowsa!

It's Like Being Home...

Good Man stuck his feet in first and the fish zoomed over to him.

Why Does He Get All the Fish?

Hee Hee. I Get All the Fish.
