My Trip To Japan: Bath Tub Size

I realize that I am a foot taller and weigh a lot more than the average Japanese person. Sometimes it is good to be bigger and sometimes it is not an advantage. One case in point is my hotel bath tub. I would have loved to have sit down and soaked in a hot tub of water after walking all day. Unfortunately, that was not an option for me. The tub was only slightly wider than 2 of my shoes. However, I am sure that many Japanese people have no problem taking a bath in this tub.
