Japan Trip
I Spent a good part of the summer of 93 in Japan.  It was one of the most eye openning trips I have taken. I remember the first night I was there all I wanted to do was take a shower after the 14 hour flight.   It was like 3 in the morning local time and I had to walk down the hall to the bathroom.  When I got in there I was happy to see a HUGE steaming hot tub already filled.  Thinking, "wow this is nice" I strip and hop in.  Feeling the stress of the flight soak away
I barely noticed the sound of the door creaking open.  I turned lazily around to the sight of a middle aged rotund Japanese man.  Figuring he would realize his error and leave I smiled and turned back to my tub and was TOTALLY shocked and horrified at the sound of the man getting into the tub behind me!  I jumped up out of the tub and booked it
back to our room, wet feet slapping on the floor.  The next day at orientation our guide told us, "Now you all might be shocked to learn that they do practice public bathing here in this hotel.  I couldn't help but think, "that information could have been useful LAST NIGHT!"
