We had heard rumors but yesterday, Ben our foreign affairs office savior, showed me the real thing. A building that had a room full of Deluxe Massage Chairs just for teachers. Forget the Brookstone/Sharper Image chairs you try out at the airports and the Jax Town Center these are way better. 20 minutes of thumping, rolling, squeezing, and shaking. Pure Heaven! Kris, Jim and I let the massage chairs embrace us after a great dinner in a Xiasha restaurant that had a picture menu! – no surprises! What a way to end the day.
By the way, I have gotten an email from our Foreign Affairs office saying they needed some more American teachers for next year. All you need is a college degree and an adventurous spirit…and you will get to use the chair too…. Want to join me? Great food (if you can figure out what you are ordering or they actually understand what you are asking for), great students and with all the walking it is almost guaranteed that you will lose weight!
