Zen Friday

Ten Thousand Waves got on my radar somehow. It's a highly rated spa experience just outside the Santa Fe city limits. Our luck prevailed and we were able to book treatments with only a day's notice. Early Friday morning we found ourselves transported to Japan. The 91 stairs up the lush landscape to the spa immediately settled our busy little minds and put us in a Zen-like state. We started our day in a private outdoor soaking tub with a personal sauna and cold plunging pool. It was heavenly to be in the woods naked.

We had some time to kill before our next treatment, so we relaxed in a glass room with floor cushions, blankets and soothing headphone music. Next, a couples Swedish
massage, Ashi Anma foot treatment and finally a Yasuragi head & neck treatment. The best spa experience ever.

Ten Thousand Waves also has a lodge and restaurant on property so we went to the restaurant for a late lunch. The food, saki and ambiance were also an unparalleled experience. Such an enjoyable day all around and the last hoorah for this trip.
