TERMAL POOLS in Poland

A few of you wanted to see what the pools were like in the new "water park" in Poland. Here is the address for Baseny Termalne (termal pools) in Bukowina Tatrzanska:

http://www.termabukowina.pl/baseny-termalne.html

There are 9 pools, temps up to 94 degrees, I think.  All very modern as you see, located out in the country by the ledge shown in one of the posts, and all high tech.  One of the pools had roller beds under water - if you could get on them there was a place to lay your head and just relax in the warm water while the rollers relaxed your muscles.  I don't think U.S. has anything quite like it.

One of the nice features of the facility was the buzzer system.  Every minute or predetermined time a buzzer went off in the most crowded pools and everyone had to move over one spot.  No one could "hog" the roller beds or water jets, etc.  It was all very well organized, clean and user friendly.  I haven't swam in an outdoor/indoor pool in the snow in  a long time - a very relaxing and fun thing to do again.
