We have a new pool in the backyard.
For quite sometime we have been thinking about getting a pool to our backyard. Size does matter and so does price. We will probably have to buy a car until October so we couldn’t spend a lot of money on a pool. We searched a bit and although we preferred other type of pool for now we have to take advantage of a smaller and cheaper one.
Yesterday I bought a average pool (366 cm x 91 cm – 12′ x 36″), it takes 6786 liters of water, it’s filled with air on the border and the walls just come up with the water. I was quite skeptical that the walls would come up but, they did. The walls are built with three layers of strong material and I hope the neighbor’s cats don’t put their paws in there.
Here is a collage of the several stages we went through this morning and part of the afternoon. Today it was a National Holiday so we could do this today, the kids were thrilled of course.
Ok…I am officially jealous. I want a pool in my backyard.
Looks like the kids are going to have so much fun!!

Tina: It was not very expensive and the size is enough for my kids. We can be all inside and there is still space to play.
Laura: yes, they had a lot of fun and my daughter even swallow a few liters of water
She like to be under water.
That looks like something we could use here in Florida. Do you have it on concrete? We have grass in our backyard and I wonder if there’d be a problem with it ripping the bottom?

I see those popping up all over the place. What a great idea.

Connie, mine is on concrete but it can be on grass. The material is very resistant and doesn’t get damaged easily. Here’s the link to my pool – http://tinyurl.com/6jffuv
We have friends that used to have that exact same pool! It was great! Very refreshing and the kids all loved it. Have fun!

[...] Having the pool at home is lots of fun but also time consuming. When they are in the pool I have to be near to prevent accidents, I don’t want to be on the computer while they are in the pool, I want to keep my eyes on them. [...]
