I would be very careful about taking an infant into the hot pond these days. The tepid water is comfortable, but a haven for some dangerous bacteria. People with open cuts should stay out as well. The Pahoa Aquatics center is a better environment...(IMHO)
I have used the hot ponds for 20 years - this is another sad fact that has happened with the growth of population in Puna!
