As you can see on the website pictures it was one of the most beautiful swimming pools in Paris. I used to go there as a child as I used to live nearby (West Paris). <BR/>The swimming pool with fresh water you mentionned is la piscine de la Butte aux Cailles. A very nice swimming pool indeed! <BR/>Love your blog, greetings from a parisienne readerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-12961345653447652312008-07-12T08:37:00.000-04:002008-07-12T08:37:00.000-04:00Loving your post with watercolors of pears!
