What the fish?

I thought I'd post a short update on our latest experience we had this weekend.  I had heard about fish spa's about a year ago and figured we definitely needed to check it out.  When in Rome, right?  So Joe and I headed to Happy Feet to get our feet chomped on by some brave, little fish.  Such a trip!  It is basically a little pool full of little fish that feast on the dead skin on your feet.  It is a little freaky when you first stick your feet in the water as they swarm and go to town.  It tickles a little but once you relax, it is oddly enjoyable.  The most alarming thing about the whole experience was that I had so many on my feet that you could hardly see my skin.  When I looked over at Joe's feet, he had a handful nibbling so I felt bad and pulled my feet out of the water thinking they would swim over to him.  They did check his out but weren't that interested.  As soon as I put mine back in the water it was like bee's on honey.  For real?  Joe got quite the laugh out of this as he has always said if I was mangled in an accident, he would just need to look at my feet to identify me.  Nice, huh?  I told him to wear high heels for 15 years traveling around the country and then talk to me.  Anyway, my tootsies are much smoother and we are planning our next trip when Kelsey gets here... who wants to take bets on whether she'll do it??!!

  1. OK...that's just crazy and there is no way in hell that I would do that! Fish...biting your feet...I DON'T THINK SO! I'm not voting on whether Kelsey will do it or not, because if she doesn't, I'd be right there with her.
