Mud Bear

Being a volcanic island, Fiji has many hot springs bubbling to the surface. One such place has capitalized on nature by offering "mud baths" in a natural hot pool. Driving by, we stopped to check it out. Bear was the only one with a swimsuit so he got in with a Fijian woman to lather up in mud to experience its "soothing and medicinal" qualities. Bear just found it slimey and prefered the neighboring clear, hot pool which felt "like the hot tub in Utah".

So much for boys wanting to play in the mud!
