Trip to Lu Shan (Hot Spring Mountain)

We recently took a mini vacation to get away from the heat by going up into the mountains ....... to go hot springing! Sigh. Just can't escape the heat here.

But it was a great time and a nice relaxing break. Basically just an overnight stay at a cozy room wth our very own sauna and natural hot spring (that comes direct from the mountain river). So while we disagreed on how hot we each liked it (Jo would have preferred hotter), Sage and I enjoyed taking 4 soaks in less than 24 hours.
Thank goodness the mountain air was chilly!

Here are some pics and vids.

Mom can finally feel relaxed! Yeah!

Sage having the run of the place as soon as we set him down...


Thinking his next step


What can I get into next?


Wow, mini-balloons! Where did they come from?



Here is the hot spring bath tub we soaked in


Dad and Sage enjoying themselves

Here Dad is pointing out 3 'Balloons' Sage just loves round things like this...and always says his word for them "Dahng!"
