It was very cold today. In the morning it was even sleeting. When it snows or sleets, I feel the coldness especially on my feet. Those who have poor blood circulation are called hie sho (冷え性). Their feet and hands are very cold.
Therefore I like to take a bath just before going to bed. Japanese people's way of taking a bath is different from the westerners. We soak into the hot water (around 42 degrees centigrade) to get warm and relax after washing our body outside the bathtub.
There are many hot springs in Japan. As I get older, I like to soak in hot springs.
