Changing rooms?.....why?

A couple days ago we went to the pool as it was really hot out. It was nice to get in the cold refreshing water and get out of the heat for a little while.

When we went to the lake the other day I mentioned that there were a bunch of little kids running around with nothing but their brithday suits on. Here in Austria people in general are more free and that is something that is just ordinary. Well, when we were at the pool there was also a little kid running around without anything on, and as the day went on I'm sure there were would have been more kids running around like that, as there wasn't many people there early in the morning.
Well, the kids running around naked isn't real crazy I guess, but what about an adult? The pool has changing rooms but Im not sure if there are used that often or not. While we were hanging out in the pool I happened to see a guy, probably in his 40's, take off his clothes (all of them) and put his speedo on.
I kind of looked around wondering if others saw the same thing thinking that this was strange, but no one paid any attention to it like it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. People didnt have there iphones out nor did the cops jump out of the bushes for a public indecency arrest or ticket. Its just normal.
We feel pretty comfortable over here in Austria, but I am just not sure we would ever be that comfortable to drop trou in public and let the world in on our business.
But it was nice to go hang out at the pool for a little while.
