My First Kerala Ayurvedic Massage.

So I just wrote an email to a group of friends about my weekend break in Kerala.. An excerpt from that email..

masseur: Remove you clothes.
me: removed shirt and pant.
masseur: ties a "nada" around my waist.
me: what is this for?
masseur: this is for your special dress.
me: ?
masseur: takes a rather narrow rectangular piece of sheer white cloth and tucks it in from the front leaving the cloth hanging over my crotch. Then says "Now remove your underpant"
me: "aa, remove ..aa.. ok.". So I removed my underpants..meanwhile the white cloth covers up my naked crotch rather precariously :)
masseur: Goes around and pulls the cloth between my legs and tucks it in from behind covering the crack :) Then gives me head massage for a while..then asks me to lie face down on a traditional wooden massage table.
me: lie down gingerly.. taking care that the cloth does not move too much :p
masseur: puts oil here and there.. then unties the nada..pulls down the cloth..
me: Think to myself.. umm..hmm..ok.. nothing much I can do since he is anyways going to charge me a thousand bucks.. so I relax and enjoy the massage.. wondering how he manages to touch and massage ugly black asses of strangers :D
