Pool Cleaning

We love our pool.  We spend time almost everyday hanging in or around the pool. 

It is a Magna pool which means its salt water.  It requires very little chlorine and never has that smell and feel of pools with a lot of chemicals. Every 6 months or so the pool company dumps a bucket of salt in the water. We have to add water to it on a weekly basis because of evaporation.

 

But it is not maintenance free. The pool company comes once a week to vacuum the pool and clean the filters.  The pool does get a film on the walls that has to be scrubbed off.

Rick has developed his own style for cleaning.  He puts on his snorkel and mask, hangs on the side of the pool, and brushes/cleans the walls.





When he is done, he rests under the mango tree. Life is good on Bonaire.

  1. Looks like a beautiful pool and a very relaxing place to be. Had I not damaged my skin so much I would love to sit out there and relax and go for a swim.
    Rick looks so relaxed and happy he got all of his jobs done. I guess if I ever visit you I can sit in a chair like Rick is in the shade.
