Default Caught in the bath

These were taken at Rotorua Museum. Rotorua is one of New Zealands popular tourist spots and well known for its thermal mud pools.

A replica demonstrating a man taking a mud bath in the old days.

Spa bath. I think the bath itself needs a bath.

Same for me... the first one made me laugh out loud (my whole family stared at me like I was a weirdo) ha, ha. The other pictures are really interesting, I love seeing things from other museums (we only have old Hawaiian things here are our museum... been seeing the same stuff since I was little )
Thanks for sharing!

Nice work, Angela. I like the expression on the first one. For a moment I thought it was a HDR portrait! Thanks for sharing.
