Construction Update

Here’s a few more pictures of my construction site.
In this picture you can see the high-tech concrete pumping system used to bring concrete up to the second floor of the bedroom module. It consists of a makeshift bridge so they can wheelbarrow the concrete from the livingroom where they mix it, up the hill to the bedroom unit. They then bring it up to the second floor using buckets and a couple of ladders.
We now have a second floor bedroom.
They have started finishing the walls of the guesthouse. The roof should be going on soon.
They are also completing the pool foundation. They need to pour the pool floor before they can pour the rear wall of the guesthouse, which is part of the pool. Should happen in about three weeks.
Thanks for the latest pics update!
The progress these past two updates is very clear to see.
Once the pool gets a bottom and is built up, things are going to look even clearer.
