Nude woman spotted in local public swimming pool.

Sorry no pictures. ;) Stephanie and I have got into the habit of going swimming at the year-round outdoor pool here in Narbonne. It's heated and quite enjoyable on a sunny day, which is most days. Walking in one's swim suit out to the pool is torture though, so we try to jump in quickly. This Tuesday we were there and about to descend the ladder into to the pool but something was stopping us. That was a young woman hanging on to the ladder who had pulled her red one piece down to about her waist, presumably wanting a little soliel on her bosoms. (!) Stephanie solved the problem by just jumping in the side of the pool and I followed her. The woman looked like she was getting out like that but perhaps the surprised looks on our faces changed her mind and she pulled up her suit before returning back inside. Now, I know topless suntanning is the norm on French beaches, but public pools ?! Another oddity: the changing rooms and showers aren't divided into ladies and men's. Just one mass area with lots of little booths to actually change in and people (I believe!) just shower in their swim suit. The showers are sort of divided into men's and ladies but they are open rooms that you can completely see into. What an experience going to the local public swimming pool in France!
