Reminds me of Juan Peron building that fancy motorsport complex in the late '40's when the vast majority of his country was poor as shit. Chile definitely does not have the funds to finance a two billion dollar swimming pool.

 

[nefertiti]

did the country finance it? I thought it was a private venture.

You could be right. I just couldn't imagine what private company would invest 2 billion dollars in a Chilean resort.

I was just looking at the Gini index for Chili and the distribution in wealth there is substantially worse than in Mexico even.

Shit - I have been to Victoria Falls twice and never saw anyone swimming in that river. Must be a new thing and another reason for me to go back. That place is fantastic.

Some day in the near future I am going to climb Mount Kilamanjaro and raft down the Zambizi river in the same week. Followed by a safari on Lake Kariba and then a week of R&R in Cape Town.

I have been dreaming of that trip for years. Kids are getting old enough now I can pull it off.

I believe it is a saltwater pool-



a computer-controlled suction and filtration system continuously pumps water from the ocean, keeping crystal clear.
