Cold pool!

In about a week and a half, I will have to stop swimming in the nice warm indoor pool and start swimming in the cold outdoor pool. The indoor pool is over 80 degrees with air 75-80, and the outdoor pool is closer to 65? (not heated) with air 70-75 most days. Is there anything I can do to make the transition easier? Cold showers, maybe? Or will it just be miserable no matter what?

    gull, the bubble really does help keep it warm. It's not just the weather that cools it off, it's more the rain. Last year, it was so cold for a week that I went numb after a 100 or so. I may be overestimating how cold it is, but it feels like jumping into ice water. It doesn't help that I have very little built-in insulation.
