Week #20 — concrete floor #2 poured

A week where you pour a concrete floor, start building brick walls, and start finish work on concrete ceilings and columns in the basement is a big deal!

I am continually amazed at the prowess of the Balinese workers. They casually seem to handle whatever challenges are presented to them, seemingly without a care in the world. They pace themselves with grace and in doing so they don’t get worn down from the tropical heat. Try loading buckets of sand or gravel onto your head for four or five hours in the tropics. It’s not a chore for the weak. Total respect!
