The pool is filling with water!

And finally: the pool has been plastered and is now filling with water! The plaster crew arrived around 11am and worked for 4 hours. It was an interesting process of shooting blew "cement" and leveling it while walking in special boots. Now our pool looks very blue. This, however, will change through the acid process that will take place once the pool is filled in. Apparently the blue mass already contains the mosaic of navy and white sparkles which will be revealed in several days.
Today Rocco, the contractor building the arbor, also came and took measurements. We should have the arbor built over the weekend.

Mike, the pool manager, came to check the project condition. We agreed that the pavers which got misplaced by the bobcat would be fixed up this or next week. We did not even need to worry about that since this item was included into the contract.
So the bottom line is: we will need to work on the water condition for maximum of 2 weeks, and then - swimming time!!! :)
