Dr. Fish



On Friday, a group of friends and I decided to head to a cafe called Dr. Fish. You can see from the pictures as to the reason it is called that. For the price of 2,000 won and a coffee (with unlimited bread and jam), you can stick your feet into a tub filled with small little sucky fish. The moment you put your feet in, they rush to your dead skin and suck it off. I'm an extremely ticklish person, especially my feet, and it took a little to get used to the feeling. I was squirming and making faces. It felt like there were thousands of bubbles rising up below my feet and in between my toes. The fish really liked what was in between my toes.

I was told by one of the people that in Seattle, they tried to do this, and charged $40 for 15 minutes. But there is a law that spas have to have everything sterilized, and you can't sterilize fish, so they had to shut down.

Dear Erin & Luc: Help! A different format appeared, I tried to send you a message, didn't work I guess. Now it seems to be back to old format or whatever you call it. Onward Christian Soldiers! Erin I loved the article about the Bath house & Dr. Fish. It really made me laugh. I'm keeping this short in case it doesn't work. Hope all is well and thanks for sharing all those interesting & fun things in your life. Isn't it exciting about Mom & Dad's trip to Africa. Love to you both, stay safe and healthy. Love from Nannie xxx000
