Step Up, Step Up

There are several bathrooms in the house (three in fact), and one of them is en-suite. It is truly a stunning bathroom. There is a walk-in shower, that actually has two showers (in fact, I have just been to check and I think it really has four showers). Anyway, there is one which sprays water over your head in the normal fashion, and one which you can take down to spray water wherever you like, then the back of the shower has a number of jets so you can have water spraying all over you, and then there is another foot massager thing that also sprays water out of it. The whole shower cubicle thing has a deep solid base and a little seat so you can just fill it up and turn it into a mini bath to sit down in.

There is also a huge whirlpool bath, with digital controls so you can adjust the temperature and ferocity of the jets of water. The whirlpool bath is set into its own tiled unit, and has a step up to it. I'm sure if this bathroom were in England, Building Regulations would insist that the step was painted with a yellow stripe and there would be at least one "Mind the Step" sign. But as we're not in England, the step is tiled in the same deep glossy dark blue that the walls and floor are tiled in, and I keep tripping over it. I love it.
