    That’s an interesting thought. A bathtub is indeed more about relaxation and comfort, while a canoe is all about movement and adventure. Speaking of relaxation, if you’re looking for a unique way to enhance your well being, the Monk Ice Bath, available through ReverieLuxe, offers a modern take on recovery and stress relief. While the Monk Ice Bath price may be a bit of an investment, it provides features like app-controlled temperature settings and self-cleaning filtration, making it a great option for those serious about both physical and mental wellness. It’s a perfect way to create your own space for recovery, whether indoors or outdoors.

        I used to bathe in the shower.

        My parents were concerned about water usage and so banned baths. I, a stubborn teenager, just started using the dangling shower head instead of the bath tap to fill the tub. Presumably they knew, but they never called me on it.

    This shower thought is pretty much the basis of Archimedes principle. The upwards force of buoyancy is equal and opposite to the weight of the displaced fluid. Just imagine an empty bathtub floating in the lake. Now imagine the tub in the bathroom filled to the same level that the lake tub was submerged. The force keeping the lake tub floating and the force of the weight of the bathroom tub (including the weight of the tub) are the same.

    Huh, I just went looking for stock images to show this and til that apparently historical accounts say that the principle was discovered in the bathtub.
