The blocks came

Yesterday the blocks came, so they started building seriously. Of course, then it started raining so they had to stop. Since we need rain, we're happy anyway.
They started the kitchen wall:





They poured the cement for the stairs:



They almost finished the wall of the guest bathrooom :

Tommorow hopefully they will start building the second floor. They prepared the wood and metal for the stairs. Again, tommorow hopefully they'll pour the concrete.

Form the other side of the mirpesset they took down the window but they still need to take down the wall-

There's a hole in our house.....

So today, they started the day by taking down the dry wall room.



They ended the day by turning our house into swiss cheese.


They put the stuff they took down in the "mamad".

A pump

So we didn't stay for the pouring of our cement floor, but we got to see the pump and cement trucks (9 trucks) while they were pouring a floor for a neighbor:


somebody got very very close.....








We comply with requests

The big cement pouring will happen at 2 o'clock, so stay tuned.

We were asked to post pre-building pictures, so we will comply:

The front of the house-



The side of the house-



The walkway to the front door-



A closer look of the ledge of the patio living entrance can be seen here-

This is not a blog

This is just a way of telling facts without a telephone. There will be no funny jokes, humorous content or anything original.

Yesterday the kablan dug up our backyard and prepared for pouring the cement tommorow (hopefully).
