Go to the hot springs

Of all the various sights and activities Mackenzie wanted to experience in Japan, there was one that she was slightly more... keen on experiencing alone. Or, at least, with the fewest amount of people around her as possible. And those were Japan's onsens or hot springs. The springs were world renowned as a place to de-stress and relax. Plus, the natural minerals in the water were said to do wonders in rejuvenating people's spirits. Mackenzie had been dreaming about experiencing a genuine onsen for years now, and finally she'd have to wait no longer.

The only downside, Mackenzie knew, was that such establishments were usually communal baths. The men's and women's areas were separated, of course, but if Mackenzie wanted to experience her dream she'd have to be comfortable surrounded by other women. Other naked women. Unlike some of the nearby tourist traps, the place she had scouted out had a zero-tolerance policy for any clothing entering the heavenly water. That wasn't especially rare for a true onsen, but it did mean that swimsuits and even towels were banned from being worn while the bathers soaked in the hot water.

But, Mackenzie knew, in such situations nudity was no big deal. So, she reasoned (somewhat erroneously), no one was likely to pay her any extra attention even if she was naked. Plus, if she went early in the day, then it would be less crowded anyway, the redhead figured.

A quick ten minute rail ride and a five minute walk later, Mackenzie arrived at the hot springs. She entered the main doors and was immediately blown away by the lobby. It wasn't ostentatious or gaudy in the least. On the contrary, the simple yet inviting aesthetic made it seem absolutely authentic in every way! This was exactly what Mackenzie wanted. Hardly able to contain her excitement, Mackenzie paid and received her towel from the front desk. She wasted no time bustling over to the changing room, barely able to stop herself from running.

Unfortunately, her eager giddiness would soon be replaced with embarrassment and humiliation, as the nubile redhead would soon find out.
