Cleaning the largest swimming pool
By
In this freezing cold of England photos and videos of people having a fantastic time on swimming pools makes me just a little bit jealous. I sincerely hope that this year we have similar type of weather we had last summer. Over the weekend I was just browsing through on the Net trying to learn and find new interesting facts for general knowledge purpose and came across the World’s largest swimming pool on YouTube. Just the look of the pool was so beautiful that I had the urge to go there sooner than later.
The largest swimming pool is called San Alfonso del Mar seawater pool in Algarrobo, Chile. It is approximately 1,020 meters long and covers upto 20 acres. It uses 66 million gallons of water and was open for use in 2006. Imagine how many pool covers they would require to cover up the whole pool. I am just curious to know how long it will take them to clean the whole pool and how often they clean it. As I have a swimming pool at home, I know the swimming pool chemicals I require costs me a hell lot of money as I need to clean it every 3 weeks, I just want to know how much they would need to spend to keep this pool clean. These are definitely the first few questions I will ask them when I get to Algarrobo.
While browsing my wife looked at me and said I wish we were in Chile this Valentine. May be she is right we should have been there this Valentines but we are not. I thought about this all night and decided to take her there for our anniversary this May. This will definitely come as a great surprise for her. Thinking about it may be I shouldn’t tell her as it will be a even greater surprise if I just took her there without telling her, obviously when we reach the airport she will realise we are going to Chile but still would be great to see her reaction when she finds out in the airport.
It also seems like you can various different activities on the pool other than just swimming such as wake boarding, scuba diving and water skiing. I am really looking forward to this break.
