Find the 'Hammam Report' post @https://maribelmiroenglish.blogspot.com/search?q=the+hammam+report
We found Alibey Hammam (1)to be a (1)pretty nice blue building, domed capped and located (2)near the subway area. A small entrance led us (3)into a hall, (4)with a white marble floor and walls (5)around it and a big dome (6)on top (7)of it.
Once inside, the four (8)of us were ushered (9)into a changing room.
Our students felt a bit shy and asked 'do we have (10)to change here?' No doubt: the four (11)of us (12)in the same changing room.
The hammam lady left the door ajar (13)as she stayed staring (14)at us (15)from the entrance. We were then given a linen towel, which we wrapped (16)around ourselves. As soon as we stepped (17)into the warm rooms, we were sharply taken our linen towels (18)off, and our bikini tops as well.
Then, ushered again (19)into different corners (20)of the warm rooms: each one (21)of us was made (22)to sit (23)on a (2)separate small marble bench, (24)near an (3)old marble basin full (25)of water.
We were all then sort (26)of baptized. First, cold water, then hot water poured (27) from our heads. (28)After being soaked (29)through, we were made (30)to lie (31)on (4)warm marble platforms: the massage was (32)about to start.
I almost fell (33)off the marble platform. It was so slippery and the massage so energetic...
The four (34)of us were scrubbed all (35)over (36)with a massage glove.
(37)As our girls said: 'this has been our second time (38)since we were babies'
(39)For me, it was the best massage ever.
Thank you very much, Aysun, (40)for everything.
