A mirror pool is a pool

filled with natural sulphuric thermal water kept  heated at 38-39  degrees C.You walk in in the altogether,having showered first, and are left to enjoy for  10-20 minutes.The first time I was by myself and stayed for 20 minutes,today there were five of us,I stayed for barely fifteen  as two German battleaxes   thought  they had it all to themselves.  No regard for any-one. A man from the men's pool separated by a partition had asked them twice to be quiet, to no avail. Why are the Germans so thoughtless?
After one leaves the mirror pool  [ so called,I presume, because the walls are glittering like a mirror, and the water is clear,too] one is ushered - wrapped in a massive white sheet - into a separate section  to lie down in a cubicle  and relax.It is quite common to have a massage after the bath,and I did today,it was a very enjoyable 25 minutes.
As much as I like the mirror pool,my favourite is the mud pool.You walk in sulphuric  mud in thermal water which springs  directly into the pool.The water is,well, muddy,dirty. Totally and completely.And I love it.
