Heading down on the tram from the top of Victoria Peak.
Just your average drug store.
Just doing a little window shopping.
Duck feet never looked so good?
Street shopping.
Always unique forms of transportation in China.
Some type of road gang.
Hand made broom.
What's in the bag?
Another view of the Victoria Peak tram.
Shop is open for business.
There is still room for a couple more signs!
Street side food cart... don't do it!

Who needs a truck?

Day Fourty-Eight


DAY -









Pool Update

Just finishing up the re-bar.

This device separates out the dirt from the rocks. Since almost all of the pool diggings turned out to be rock we now have to truck in expensive dirt. Trying to limit the amount by even a few truck fulls will help.

The foam you see on the deep end is there to limit the amount of shotcrete needed to build the pool walls. Since we had to chip out the rock, the walls got a tad bit out of control. It is cheaper to fill the void with foam rather than expensive gunite.
This is the control center. Filters, pumps and cleaning system will go here as well as the water fall pumping system.
