Walkway update

Finally we and our guests can walk all the way through the park on the 'raised walkway with drainage'.
Starting in 2014 I dug trenches every other week or so and filled them with stray PET bottles. That way the environment had less pollution and I had a raised walkway to keep our feet dry. Although it is not quit finished, still two more branches of the walkway are planned, I thought it's time to mention a full circle can be walked now.
Up till now I've extracted approximately 30,000 used PET bottles from environmental waste for a walkway of about 300 meters.

Bridge Repair

In 2013 two friends helped us building bridges over the trenches. After 5 years of tropical weather, termites and mould had their way; all the wooden parts had to be replaced.
All 4 bridges are now in good condition again.
